Runners knee, or Patellofemoral Syndrome, is what the original cho pat strap is for. And it does work well for many people. Runners knee is an overuse condition and missalignment of the knee cap. The pain there is under or below the knee cap. ITB problems are related to inflamation and tightening from the knee all the way up to the hip and butt. The pain with an ITB problem is on the sides of the knee cap. An ITB problem can be taken care of with certain stretches and rest. Of course, cho pat has a strap for it too. I have had, and recovered, from both of these. (without using the cho pat)
