If you can pinpoint pain in your hip then it is an independent hip problem not related to your disc if pain is spreading in a wide area then it is due to disc lesion in L1/2if u have hip problem try stretching your hip flexors and strengthening your extensors for your disc problem try a simple test by leaning forwards while standing on your heels with toes UPI pain increase I suggest rest in knee and hip flexion 90 degree if condition improves then u should start physical therapy right away good luck
