What Causes Sharp Pain In Hip?

When I bend over or twist at times I get very sharp pain in the upper right rear portion of my hip. I have no discomfort in the joint itself ever or any other areas on a regular basis, but with the slightest wrong movement the sharpness almost brings me to my knees. What is the deal
