Study Overview
Brief Summary
In this single-center randomized controlled trial, subjects undergoing a first-time ultrasound-guided unilateral intraarticular hip injection will be randomized into one of two groups: hip injection with prior local anesthesia (With LA) or hip injection without prior local anesthesia (Without LA). Visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores (0-100) will be collected after the local anesthesia injection (With LA group) and intraarticular hip injection (both groups). The primary outcome measure for comparison between the two groups will be VAS score for the intraarticular hip injection.

Inclusion Criteria
- •patients undergoing a first-time ultrasound-guided unilateral intraarticular hip injection
- •Subjects must be fluent in English
- •Subject must be able to consent for themselves and mark pain levels on a visual analog scale.
Exclusion Criteria
- •previous intraarticular hip injection (to remove bias from prior injection experiences)

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
mean pain score
Time Frame: baseline
A visual analog pain score will be collected. The scale of the score is 0-100 with 100 indicating more pain.
Secondary Outcomes
No secondary outcomes reported
