Hi,
Thank you for replying.
It looks from your details that your pain at hip is aggravates with walking specially walking upstairs,it relives with rest,you are mildly overweight,there is no injury & you are taking treatment for high blood pressure.
Looking at these details & your age, you can most probably have arthritis of hip, this can be a early stage. By bearing weight on affected hip, you expose mildly damaged cartilage to pressure & this leads to pain.You should do following to have relief in this-
1.Try to decrease your weight more.You should be near 60 kg.
2.Take a stick in your opposite hand.This will help to distribute weight to your legs as well as your upper limb,in this way decreases pressure over affected hip.
3.Take a mild analgesic like avil or aleeve for relief.
4.Start taking supplements for your joint like glucosamine with chondroitin sulfate.
5.Start doing exercises for hip. I have provided a link below which will guide you in this regard.
