Hi.
Thanks for your elucidate history.
Injections over six years and need for more is an indication that surgery will be the best option.
It wall depends upon what your MRI report of the spine, and hip say.
It is very important to see what the problem is exactly. You are saying that you have back problem which is playing your hip, with burning, numbness and stabbing pain and the left buttock is swollen and very sore.

I have a feeling that you should also get checked by an Orthopedic Surgeon about the possibility of a local problem in the hip joint and related muscle groups too.

I find this answer helpful
