Seems to me like the muscles connecting the left leg and the hip are a bit weak. Do some strength training exercises on that area before you get back to windmills or you'll be in for trouble.

I would suggest leg lifts while standing and lying down to all sides (front, back, left and right).

First try it with just body weight, if that's too easy for you, then attach some weight to your leg. Do it slow and steady so you can get maximum benefit from the exercise.

warmup and stretch man. do some toprock then a good lunge and just hold it until you feel good. it's probably your hip flexor being stiff.

I have had these before. Just remember you stretch in every direction, and try doing like squat thrusts.

fish oil. its like a big supplement. imagine taking fish oil and putting it into one pill. eases joint pain. has no taste and it goes down easy.
