What Causes Sharp Pain In Lower Leg Of The Hip That Has Bursitis?
I have bursitis in one hip. It has gotten much better however I now have sharp pain in the lower leg of the same hip. Could that be the Lats? If so what can I do other than stretch . What stretches? Could it be varicose veins. There is a depression in the area where the pain is located.

The hip pain is normally localized. Your leg pain could be due to spinal disc lesions like a herniated disc. Stretches won't help first you need investigation. I would recommend you an MRI of the LS spine. Only once your diagnosis is clear than you can be given treatment
