Brief Answer:
Not likely to cause a hip pain.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Injection in the SI joint is not likely to cause a hip pain. The pain in the hip can be due to other muscular reasons. You can do a hot compress in the painful area and take a mild pain killer. Applying a local analgesic gel will also help.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
