Brief Answer:
Mostly stress to muscle around hip joint.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

It seems to have started with a jerky, strong movement while playing .The history of pain in hip at a particular movement suggests stress to one of the muscles surrounding hip joint,(for example- a small muscle (pyriformis) that lies in sciatic foramina of pelvic bone ...this muscle (when stressed, inflamed, sprained) causes pressure on sciatic nerve while contraction & causes severe pain while contracting the muscle while doing rotation of hip joint.

* The thing needs to be confirmed by detailed history at it's occurrence , actual physical examination & investigation like CT scan under care of an Orthopedic doctor. Please consult one.
* Till then - Avoid painful condition, give rest to hip joint ( use of crutches while moving ).
- Over the counter anti inflammatory medicine Like Ibuprofen 200 mg to 400 mg( according to body weight ) twice a day after food ... would give some relief before you get expert advise.

I hope that answers your query. Any follow up query is welcome.

Thanks.
