Could Weak Leg With History Of Hurting The Leg Be Iliotibial Tract?
I have very weak left leg where there is little lift when I lie on back in slight upright position and try to lift leg to do core muscle exercises...I did hurt it years ago she bucked off a horse. I think it may be the The iliotibial tract? Can you suggest any remedies?

It can be weakness of illiotibial tract or some time there can be meralgia parasthetica. It is a nerve compression disease with pain in left side of thigh. So i would advice you to show it to a orthopaedic surgeon and get his opinion.
