Sore hips from squats. New to Stronglifts. (and exercise in general)

Hey everyone, I've been doing strong lifts for a couple weeks now and I'm really enjoying it. But I am having some problems and not sure where else to ask.

My internal rotator on my left hip bugs me while I'm squatting (135lbs as of today), and all day after working out. Sometimes the next day, but not very often. Should I lay off squatting for awhile? I'm not sure if this is normal pain or if I'm injuring myself, and nobody I socialize with does any fitness so I'm all alone here. It mainly irritates me while I'l lying in bed, but sometimes while I'm sitting as well. Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks for the help in advance.

EDIT: I should mention I'm 6'5", 215lbs, following a meal plan with ~215lbs of protien daily, so I think I'm doing everything right.
