Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
If you still experience pain and tenderness over your butt after two weeks of injury, there might be a fracture.
I suggest you to consult an orthopaedician nearby for a detailed examination.
You may get the X-ray of the area affected under his/her guidance.
Let me know if you have any more concerns.
Regards.
