Tight IT band

I am 62 and have had a long success streak with yoga helping me feel great. I am very disciplined and do yoga everyday for decades, but I believe that must be my current problem as my routine was pretty much the same everyday and very centered on hip openers. Though I have had a double herniated disc for decades and yoga has made it a non-problem. Now I have sciatica for 3 weeks with no improvement- the doctor who had been a major college sports medicine therapist for athletes told me I had especially tight IT bands which could account for my pain. In the exercises that you can pull up for IT and yoga - I do everyday, like pigeon. Suggestions to loosen up my tight IT ? I am doing the few the doctor gave me , on my second day.... sure hurts, Thanks
