Due to prolomged sitting and cross legs causes the pain only one side, as there will be compression.
Visit nearby physiotherapy clinic and take electrotherapy, the pain will get reduced.

Yes it is usually a sign of pelvic dysfunction or a thoracic dysfunction to have tightness along one side.
Please visit a Manual therapist for proper assessment and treatment

Sitting for a prolong time and not maintaining posture,while sitting ur keeping more pressure to one side that is the reason ur feeling more tightness to one side than other
Pls visit nearby physiotherapy clinic and take electrical modalities for pain relief later start doing stretching, strengthening, postural correction will help u to prevent this kind of issues
