Hello,
Thanks for posting your query,
From description it obviously seems that it is indeed a cyst but it will be wise for you to get a doctor to examine and confirm. If it is a cyst, then surgical removal is much more advisable rather than drainage. There is always tendency of recurrence of the cyst (since fluid will still infiltrate in the sac).
If your hips are painful during sex, it is probably because you might be having a problem with the soft tissues (muscles) of your hips. That you will also need a doctor to take a closer look in order to determine if it is muscle that is painful or the joints. Your description does not give any sufficient info to determine. Pain during sex, is probably due to the pressure exerted by your partner on your hips. You might be having a mild osteoarthritis that only manifest during an intense physical activity such as sex.
Hope this helps and wish you the best
