Mine was nearly the same. Turned out to be tendonitis in the gluteus medius and minimus.
Steroid injections in the SI joint, piraformis, and hip bursa took care of the problem.

Thank you. How was your condition diagnosed? I came to expect 10 min max with a doctor, with no much evaluation going on. Did you do hip MRI? Also, how long did it take to come back to normal?

How was this diagnosed? Your post says “turned out to be … “. I am really interested in following my diagnosis as I am convinced that surgery is not the answer for me.
