I had this issue after my TKR and PT said it was my IT band too. They used some kind of foam roller on the side of my leg and manually worked that on it for a few sessions and that took care of it. I am 6 years out from my surgery and have had no more problems with it.

Was your leg also swollen? Mine is 1" larger from above knee, my knee, and all down my calf than the other leg. It does not seem to be a traditional form of edema, but could it be fluid retention?
