In brief:
Diagnosis?
The answer is likely yes.
It depends on the cause of the pain. Have you seen a doctor? You may have sacroiliac pain or piraformis syndrome.

In brief:
Depends!
If injected im, you were getting a quick dose of cortisone.
Won't last. On the other side, if the muscular trigger point was injected, expect longer relief!
