Hip pain after running

Just on one side. Anyone know most likely cause? Or what I can do to prevent hip pain after running?

I have a sedentary job and sit a lot which can cause muscular issues in the hips, eg tight flexors, hamstrings. And weak glutes. Running a lot showed this up and got pain, much worse in one side. Mine improved hugely when I added yoga / pilates.

Hip flexor maybe?

Glute activation exercises before you go might help. Probably needs some proper help though.

Can mean osteoarthritis, but might not be as serious as that.

I'd go to a physio. Or get the Running Free From Injury book and try to sort yourself first.

But seek proper help if it persists.
