How to ease hip pain 
Get a diagnosis before anything else. 
It is really important to know what is causing your pain. See a doctor before you start doing any exercises or taking any medication.
There are many reasons your hip could be in pain, including arthritis, bursitis, or an injury you've got while playing a sport. Always ask your doctor what you should and should not be doing, given the cause of your hip pain.
