Suggest Treatment For Sharp Hip Pain

I have a sharp pain that is on the edge of the back part of my hip. It almost feels like a ball between my hip and leg. It happens when I put weight on it, lay on it, or when I try to massage the area. It s very tender when I do. The weird part is that it goes away if I start to run. It s making me walk with a slight limp. I have recently been doing a new excersise routine that focuses on legs, but I ve been going to the gym my whole life.
