Joint injection

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.

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

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

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
