Sounds like trochan-: -teric bursitis. Pain is caused by the bursa not happy with the walking & the pullig. The fascia rubs against the prominence of the outer hip with each step. The walking you described & the pulling, especially if any of it was up & down hills will cause this inflammation. Ice after activity, NSAIDS if able 2 take them, avoid lying on that side, & activity modification.
