It depends on the cause
Hi, you should see your healthcare provider if you have not already done so. This response is not a substitute for seeing someone who can examine you. That said, if pain is due to osteoarthritis best exercises are to strengthen the muscles that support the hip: hop extensors and hip abductors. You can do these by lying on stomach
Work on range of motion, also gluteus medius and abductor/adductors. ‘Kickbacks’ can help too. Often, hip pain can be referred from lumbar.
Flexibility plus gentle strengthening (stationary bike and tension cords) can be helpful.
