What causes leg pain around the trocanter bone area?

Posted by Sivaraj2

I have pain in my upper left leg around the Trochanter bone and it only hurts when I am sitting.  I have no problem doing squats in the gym or any other exercise using my legs, but when I am sitting, unless I sit just right, there is pain around that are.  I think it is around the Trochanter bone but it is up in my left outer thigh just below my buttock muscles.
