Right Hip pain towards outside

Question

Asked for Male, 29 Years

I woke up yesterday and suddenly my right hip has been paining. The pain is on the outer side rather than center of the hips and sometimes increases when turning while walking. I sincerely hope that this is some ad-hoc problem because of sleeping in wrong posture. Looking for expert advice.
