Hello. Thanks for writing to us. The sudden and sharp pain in the hip that you are having could be due to a side effect of the drug you are taking - rosuvastatin or a muscle spasm in the area. Since you have stopped taking the drug, the symptoms should improve in next few days. I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. Regards, Dr. Praveen Tayal , drtayal72@gmail.com
