That can be an overuse thing, putting too much load through it over too short a time - I pulled my abductor in March and it's been quite a slow process to get back to fitness. Some of this was lack of gym and pool access. wont just be that muscle though but glutes, lower back, hammies and calfs all need attention.
Strength work:
Sumo deadlift focussing on keeping feet and knees out
Single leg reverse lunge (Ideally band around your leading leg to add tension)
Leg press machine with knees and feet angled out - Heavy.
Leg press jumps - light load and jump up and down on the machine, feels weird, works well.
Hip abuction machine - as heavy as you can go
hip abduction machine - isometric for 30-40 secs (basically make it too heavy to move and just hold a push against it)
Adonis Harrison Jnr has also done some posts on hip mobility which are well worth looking at on Instagram.
