Joint injection

I had a steroid injection for a knee problem and it did reduce pain, it works best for injuries rather than osteo arthritis, it is much better than taking paracetamol every day

Yes twice - once under local and once under general. Pain relief lasted several months.

I had a steroid injection under ultrasound a few weeks ago. Is that the sort of thing you mean?
After a couple of days the pain had reduced and hoping it will last a few months.
Don't know what you mean by recovery period though my OH went with me but I could have easily driven home myself

I’ve not got experience but I’ve often wondered what’s the point? It doesn’t solve the problem and only masks it temporarily.
That’s assuming you have Osteo-Arthritis in your hip, sorry if that’s not the case. Hip pain is a bugger for sure.
