I can use 170s at 5'4. 172.5's would be pushing it. Did your fitter talk to you about that? Still, the fact that only your right ITB seems irritated is still consistent with a q factor issue. The right pedal is further offset than the left because of the chainrings. So, sometimes only the right ITB gets irritated.
But, honestly, I think the best thing is to revisit the fitter and talk about what's happening. A few tweaks might be in order.

Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

I have never been able to ride anything except 165s. I am short, but still, when I tried the 170s it was torture.
