It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. If you are overweight, losing weight is imperative. Regular aerobic exercise would help by improving muscle strength and flexibility. If these measures do not help, it would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!

Could involve hip , sacroiliac, or lumbar spine. Maybe sciatica? Have an orthopedic surgeon or physiatrist exam you
