Brief Answer:
MRI scan will help in proper diagnosis.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
You injured your hip almost two months ago. The presence of pain and limp is suggestive of an internal hip joint injury. Even if the bones are not broken, the chances of a ligament tear are there. The best way to find out the problem is to get an MRI scan of the hip done. Do consult an orthopedician for a proper examination and further treatment. Avoid all painful movements till then.
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.
