Any advice for someone with IT band pain? (self.running)

I've be suffering from IT band pain for years now and I kinda neglected it by just not running anymore and sticking to low impact exercises. I would like to one day run long distances again though.

Has anyone here advice on how to overcome this? I've watched many YouTube video on stretches and strengthening workouts but I'm not sure if it all work or if some are particularly more effective than others.

Would love some advice.

Foam rolling helps me.

Do you have any videos or Websites that I could check out for reference? I've never done foam rolling so I would like to learn first to do it properly. Thanks

Hannah Corbin on Peloton has a lot. That’s what I’ve used. I am not well versed in other foam rollers teachers/classes and don’t want to steer you wrong.

No worries, that's good enough. Thank you. :)
