Joint, bursa,tendon: It depends where the pain is. A lot of hip problems are bursitis and tendonitis but they can be joint as well. You evalaution will include a history, physical and imaging including x-rays, ultrasound and/or mri.

Back versus Hip: Overuse of an arthritic joint can cause pain especially after exercise but numbness and muscle pain can be signs of nerve compression in the lower spine level. Suggest getting both checked by a physician with expertise in musculoskeletal disorders like a rheumatologist, orthopedic or sports medicine.
