Is Aleve The Right Medicine For Severe Thigh Pain?

I took a big spill on ski slopes. Landed hard on ice on the left side hip. Two weeks later still have pain down back of left thigh. Initially hard to raise my left leg to tie shoes and pain was deep. Couldnt roll over on left side during sleep. Wondering if i need to do anything. Aleve helps pain.

since it is injury then take x-ray to rule out neck of femur fracture. can take analgesic and consult orthopaedic surgeon for surgical repair like plating and apply knot and bolt . it is to be decided whether hip joint replacement is to be done if so then it should be done.
