Lateral knee pain in runners is often caused by Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS). The ITB is a thick band of tissue which runs from the outside of the pelvis (over the hip) down the thigh and inserts just below the knee (on the outside). The symptoms range from a stinging sensation on the outside of the knee (most common), or along the entire length of the ITB, to swelling. The pain will worsen with activity when the foot strikes the ground and overpronates (where the foot "spreads" to the floor), especially if you overstride or run downhill and may persist afterward. A single workout of excessive distance or increase in mileage can aggravate the condition.
And, buy a Goode Wrap to relieve the pain after you run.

"I just placed an order for a knee wrap and a large leg warmer wrap to use on my thigh. For the past almost three years, I have suffered with severe left thigh, knee and heel pain that began immediately following colon surgery to correct a severe case of diverticulitis. I have had every test known to man, tried every treatment regiment, taken all kinds of pills, tried magnet therapy from the doctor who helped develop magnet therapy, and still, I have severe pain 24/7. At this point, the only thing that manages my pain and allows me to carry on are pain meds. I am probably an addict by now though I do not consider myself one. I take the meds to manage severe pain.
While on the Internet tonight I keyed in "severe thigh, knee and heel pain, and your site came up. I've tried everything but this, so I though I would give it a try. However, I could not determine what would be best for my heel pain, which sometimes is the worst. I wear a 9 1/2 shoe and seven inches up from the bottom of my heel is a circumference of 9 1/2 inches. If you think an elbow wrap would work on the heel pain, send it and add it to my American Express
However, if you have a better suggestion in the same price range, I'm game. At this point, I am willing to try anything.
My wife and I own a very successful fine furnishings shop for the home and office and I have to great kids, 11 and 19. I want my life back free of pain, or at least, manageable pain without the use of drugs or any more surgery. If you can help me with that, I will be forever grateful!" Sincerely, Stephen

"I just wanted you to know how satisfied I am with this product, and how much it has relieved the pain in my right knee. So much that I can now jog again. The pain in my right knee was so bad, it hurt just to walk. I didn't even think about jogging, and that was really frustrating. I started searching around for knee braces/wraps to see if I could find some alternate pain relief before I went to see a doctor about my knee. I came across your website and read all the testimonials of the people it has worked for and I said why not. If it could work for them, it probably could work for me. I must admit I was a bit skeptical at first, that simply a knee wrap could make the intense pain go away, (iliotibial band syndrome) but after just 6 days of wearing it I was able to jog 2 miles. Grant it it was tough on the lungs because it has been about a month since I have jogged, but my knee felt great. I just wanted to say Thank You for such a great product and I will definitely recommend this to anyone else who has aches and pains throughout their body".
