What Causes Sharp Pain On Left Side Of Hip?

I have a sharp pain at times on my front left side just above my hip. When I am laying down I m fine but sometimes when I go to stand up it hurts and I cannot walk as usual. This has been going on for 24 hours. It felt better during the day but now has come back some. I did have a bowel movement this morning which did help some. What should I do?

Hi, it seems you have hurt your hip and probably the capsule or the labrum, take rest and analgesics. and see if it gets ok in a few days if not that probably you will need an MRI
