Hi,
You need to get an X-ray or MRI of affected hip region, to exclude fracture after fall, possible infection and swelling after an unattended fracture. Consultation of an orthopedic surgeon with the reports would offer you needful suitable treatment for the problem.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
