Lower back pain above hip.
I have a sharp pain when I get up or sit down at right lower back, just above the hip. It started randomly a week ago. It is not there while walking or lying down, just when I get up or sit down.

It could be a muscle cramp.
please apply hot water pack around the painful area, multiple times a day.
Follow back ergonomics like sitting with good back support, avoid sitting on the floor, and for prolonged period of time. Avoid lifting weight and turn to one side while getting up from lying down position.
Next Steps
Continue for a few days. If pain doesn’t subside , visit a physician/ orthopaedic.
