This has been going on for probably a year now. Near the beginning it would happen every once in a while but now everytime i get out of my car my innner hip pops (near the grond). What's wrong and how do i fix it? Thanks for your time.

Answer
Without an exam, it is difficult to pinpoint the exact cause, but it sounds as if there is a muscle imbalance that is changing the mechanics of the hip.  A good chiropractor should be able to help you out, one, by xray to determine that there are no other factors contributing, and two, addressing the mechanical issue
