Orthopedic surgeon is your best beta
If you have a good relationship with your chiropractor, you can start there because sometimes hip pain is referred from a back condition. If the hip pain persists, then I would recommend seeing an orthopedic surgeon.
Chiropractors are neuromusculoskeletal experts. They can evaluate and conservatively manage hip pain if appropriate. I would recommend finding a provider that specializes in sports chiropractic.
