Gerbera daisies (Gerbera jamesonii) are native to South Africa. Each Gerbera flower sits on a long leafless stem about 6 inches above the plant's foliage. These plants form dense, 12-inch tall clumps of long, slightly fuzzy leaves.
The iliotibial band also moves over the greater trochanter of the femur as one walks or runs. That is what you feel is the hip bone on the side of your pelvis. It is here that it is also prone to friction. The large trochanteric bursa is a cushion that lies between the iliotibial band and the greater trochanter.ecause it is not a muscle, it doesn't occur to people that it would need to be stretched. The IT band provides attachment for the gluteus maximus and tensor fascia lata for hip abduction and provides stability to the knee.
IT (iliotibial) band syndrome: The iliotibial (IT) band is a piece of tough tissue that runs from your hip down to the outer part of your knee. When you overdo activity, it can become inflamed over time. That causes pain on the outer side of the knee and is common in runners when going downhill. Loose cartilage: Sometimes, a knee injury can break loose cartilage. These pieces can get stuck in the joint, which causes pain and swelling.
