There isn't sufficient information to give you a specific diagnosis. I would advise you to visit an orthopedician so that you can be examined and undergo necessary investigations such as X-Ray LS and pelvis, vitamin D, etc. to find the underlying cause and have it treated accordingly. You can apply a hot water bag over the area that hurts for 10 mins and then apply a topical painkiller over the area while gently massaging it.
