Can I please get help with a final diagnosis code of acute hip and thigh pain 1 day s/p injection?

Thank you for any help.
 
Does the documentation state that the pain is due to the injection? If so, then you would code post procedural pain. If not, and if no related condition is documented that causes the pain (i.e. osteoarthritis), then you would code 338.19, 719.45 and 729.5.
