In my experience, the tightness can cause the problem, and/or the problem can cause the tightness. That's why it's so hard to get ahead of and treat. Avoiding tightness is the main reason you want to stay moving, even just walking or swimming if it hurts too much to run. I also believe that's why mine flares up again if I don't exercise...the muscles get tight again and pull the whole thing out of alignment.
