Weak hip muscles causes this type of problem so strengthening you hip and core muscles will help you
Try doing lumbar twist stretch and lunging hip flexor stretch you can see these stretches on you tube. But you also need a strengthening program.
Hot fermentation will help to relax your stiff muscles so apply wherever you feel necessary.
