Many reasons: You may have a torn cartilage, or tendons may be snapping over the hip. You should get it checked out.

Varies : Multiple potential cause, from a problem in the hip itself like chondromalacia or a label tear; or it can be related to structures around the hip. Don't hesitate to be seen for a specific diagnosis and treatment options.
