Bursitis (which seems to match your symptoms) is a painful inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs that keep tendons bones and muscles from rubbing against each other in our joints as we move.

Apparently your extra-long hike through the Philadelphia Airport brought on this condition in your hip -- or made an already existing condition worse. Three more here.
