Question

Answer 1

Sounds like you trapped a nerve, it can happen whilst your boidy is relaxing you can pinch a nerve as your body relaxes. either that or you might of accidentally dislocated it...

Either way hope it get's better!

Answer 2

Popcorn?  Where did that come from?

You probably slept in a somewhat compromising position and as a result, your hip suffered as a result of it.

It should be OK after a day or two.  Use heat, take some Tylenol or ibuprofen, try to stay off of it for several hours, and try to walk again.  It should be better after all of that, but if not, see a doctor.

Good luck
