What Causes Intermittent Pain In Leg And Hip Joint While Walking?

I get a sudden pain in my left leg in the front at my hip area and my leg gives out just for one step. Doesn t really hurt all the time just occasionally when I walk but it is happening more often lately. Feels more like muscle than my actual hip joint.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It is possible that it is muscle or ligament related especially based on the location mentioned.

If there is any tenderness of the area, this would also suggest that it is muscle related.
You may want to consider seeing a doctor for assessment.

I hope this helps
