What Causes Left-sided Hip Joint Weakness And Pain?

I hope. I have been having pain hip, not my groin area, but underneath my body, on the left side. It feels like it s below my hip joint (mom had 2 hip replacements), but it is affecting my gait, sometimes feels weak, like it won t support me. I ve been walking 30 minutes nearly everyday for a year to improve my health. Am wondering about a stress type fracture or what this could be. Thanks.
