What is the cause of the sharp pain in my hip?

Practitioners of the Chinese art of Tai Chi believe that pain can be caused when the energy that flows through one’s body (Chi) becomes trapped in critical flow points like joints. Trauma is one of the ways the energy can be trapped.

In your case, try just the basic Tai Chi stance. Stand normally with your arms at your sides and feet shoulder width apart, knees slightly bent. Now, imagine that a tall stool rests just under your bottom. The stool begins to get slowly shorter. Sink backward slightly to keep your bottom on the seat of the imaginary shrinking stool. When your legs begin to feel stress, imagine that the stool stops shrinking. Hold that position as long as you can.

Also, (this is not Tai Chi) try the following stretch. Find a doorway that connects two rooms. Lie down with your body halfway through the doorway and your right hip against the door jam. Keep your left leg on the ground and lift your right leg so that it rests straight up against the side of the door jam. Now, your left leg is on the floor and your right leg is vertical. Let your entire right leg just sink down like a nail so that you feel the stretch along its entire length. When you’ve had enough, switch and stretch your left leg the same way.

For additional stretching benefit, get a towel and throw it over the ball of your foot on your raised leg. Pull down on the towel for ten seconds. Then, ten times, push against the towel like you are pushing a gas pedal.

I hope that helps.
