Bicycle Disc Brakes Bike

My bicycle rear disk brake is sticking on. When I spin the wheel it stops quickly. When cycling it drags. Help
These are hydraulic disk breaks. The problem started as a slight noise that would diappear if I pulled the brake level an immediately released it. Bu now every time I get the bike out the back brake sticks a bit. Really annoying. THe mechanism looks complex – I don’t want to wade in adjusting things without knowing what I am doing.
Being you seem un-sure take the bike to a shop and have them fix it. The problem can range from the caliper not being in the correct alignment to the bearings in the hub being worn or loose causing the disk to ride to one side. The noise you hear is normal when one pad is rubbing continuously.
