Hip Flexor: You could have a strain in a hip flexor muscle, as you feel better in a flexed position. The iliopsoas muscle and its bursae can give this pain and click. It could also be signs of an inguinal hernia. Try Naproxen or Ibuprofen for a couple of weeks and stretches. If no significant improvement then see a doctor. If muscular, a small shot of cortisone into the tendon and bursae could resolve it.
