A member asked:

Hip pain from doing leg exercises and when i have pain it's like spasms in my hip could i have pulled a muscle or have a torn muscle?

Anything is possible: It could be joint pain from arthritis or a labral tear, tendinitis, bursitis or muscular. If you want to know have the hip evaluated.
