Hi,
There could be many reasons for hip drop. It's important to know the cause first.
If not corrected, biomechanics of that complete line will be affected. Also, weight distribution becomes improper(you might start putting more weight on one side of the body which may in turn cause vague pains on that side), gait abnormality. [This isn't meant to scare you].
Get a skilled assessment & treatment done.
Next Steps
Get assessed & treated
