Examples of acute injuries that may cause a snap, pop, or grating sound or feeling include: 1  A broken hip (hip fracture) or pelvis (pelvic fracture), such as an avulsion fracture. 2  A dislocated hip or sprained hip. 3  Muscle strain in the groin or buttock.
Trochanteric bursitis causes pain and irritation over the greater trochanter, the bony prominence on the outside of the hip.

Most people with pain on the side of the hip simply have irritation of the trochanteric bursa and iliotibial band, but in severe cases, tendonitis or a tear of the gluteus medius may also be present.
