Pain in your hips and legs when standing?
This could be many things, but one you may look into is the greater trochanteric bursitis. Weak hip abductors, especially the gluteus medius is often found. Some other factors that may contribute to this syndrome include genu varum (bow legs), pronation of the foot (subtalar joint pronation), and leg length discrepancy.
The IT band stretches from your hip abductors to you knee. This is a band and it has a tendency of becoming VERY tight when not stretched, even in those who are not very active.
After sitting for long periods my "hip" starts killing me. It also does this while I run. A lot of people suffer from greater trochanteric bursitis and do not realize that is what it is. If you ever have knee pain in the same leg, it is probably associated with this.
However, this is just one possibility. If stretching out the hip area (google hip stretches) does not help over a few days period, this may not be your problem.
Hope this helps or at least narrows down your possible problems!

I have the same problem, what my doctor said was that if I sleep with my mouth open (which I do) the gland that produces saliva gets dried out and when you don't produce enough saliva for when you eat your gland can start acting up and gets irritated, fix this probably by trying to sleep with your mouth closed but if that doesn't work, suck on a candy in the morning so your gland regains moisture and won't cause the pain
