Contact your doctor and see what they say. they should give you something that will take it away.

See your health care provider as soon as possible (orthopedic surgeon), for consultation. A flexion contracture is a common result of hip problems. This means that motion of the hip joint has been partly lost. The hip becomes partially fixed in a slightly bent position. When you are walking or standing, the pelvis tilts forward; and when you stand straight, the back has to curve a little more. This throws extra strain on the lower back.
For poorly understood reasons, pain in the hip is often felt down the leg, often at or just above the knee. This is called referred pain. Nonreferred hip pain may be felt in the groin or the upper outer thigh. Pain that starts in the low back is often felt in the hip region. Because the hip joint is so deeply located, it can often be difficult to identify the exact source of pain.
Listen for the pain message and try to avoid activities that aggravate your hip. You should avoid pain medication as much as possible. Rest the joint after painful activities.
I hope this helps you. And good luck.
