Try swapping the lower hinge with the upper hinge.  I was told this trik by
another lister.  The theory is that most of the stress is place on the upper
hinge and your hinge pin probably needs replacement.  It would probably be
easier and less hassle to just replace the hinge altogether, though.

Best wishes,
