Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more likely. But better to consult orthopedic doctor and get done clinical examination and X-ray or MRI of sacroiliac joint with hip. Chronic pain in this area should be evaluated for osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, and osteomyelitis. So consult orthopedic doctor and discuss all these. If MRI is normal then no need to worry much.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
