Suggest Treatment For Severe Arthritis In Lower Back And Hip Area

I have severe arthritis in my lower back and hip area. I get injections in my back on a regular basis occasionally, I have to get an injection in my hip, I am waiting for the appointment for that, in the meantime, I am getting a lot of pain, shooting pain and burning sensation in my hip and down my leg, and in my knee area. I have had both knees done with total knee replacements. My question, can the burning sensation be from the hip pain and lower back pain on the nerve?

The shooting type of pain and burning pain is a typical description of nerve pain.

The pain is from the lower back radiating to the hip.
