I'm only 22, but I have serious pain in my hips. They crack and pop all of the time. Has anyone else expierenced this? What could be wrong?

I'm 5'5'' and weigh 125, so it's not a weight issue.

You most likely have tight hip muscles. Try and thoroughly stretch your hip flexors and butt muscles (search in google images if you need to) for twice a day for 2 wks and see if that decreases your pain before you go and see an orthopedic doctor. Most often problems with the hip joint itself results in pain in the groin also and you did not mention any groin pain.

I would suggest a good Chiropractor. They will x ray you as a new patient to determine the cause.
Of course the more you weigh the more your joints will hurt.
This if their is nothing radical wrong an adjustment should improve the situation.
Do you do any type of sports that could have contributed to this problem? Do you exercise or work out to keep your muscles and joint healthy? I would suggest doing that.

Go to the doctor and find out. It doesn't sound right - arthritis?
