Tendon healing is prolonged and takes time. It mainly depends on how much rest you provide to the tendon. Since it been 2 months, get repeat xray and if the fracture is united you can start physiotherapy. Continue analgesics, ice pack fomentation and volitra gel application for pain management
Next Steps
If fracture is non united or displaced.. consult orthopaedic surgeon immediately and consider repeat MRI to plan further intervention
