Question: Have i broke my thumb!?
2 days ago i fell and bent my thumb back with my wieght on it!. at the start i was in bad pain so i but i ice pack on it!. after a hr i could see sweeling around the lower joint of my right thumb where it hurts!. i took some painkillers for the bad pain but the pain wouldnt go away!. i cant move my thumb back foward and to the left as it hurts to much!. today the pain hasnt changed and switched to stronger painkillers which work better but there is still some pain!. i try to move my thumb around and found out that i can now bend my thumb weirdly while holding it then when letting go it goes back to normaly this hurts realy bad and when i do it i can hear and feel several clicks around the lower joint where it hurts!. i have seen i doctor and he says it is a sprain but could be fractured and to come back and have it checked in a week but i heard bone especialy in finger and heal broken and im worried if thats going to happen if it is broken!. so should i get a x ray before!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Find a different doctor!.
If your doctor did not take an x-ray, he or she is an imbicile!. Some people, even doctors, believe that "if you can move it, it must not be broken!." Absolutely not true!.
Your doctor may be right - it may be a sprain!. The clicking things that you are hearing could be ligaments that are a little disorganized!.
But, even if the doctor's guess is right (and they do call it "practicing" medicine), they should have taken an x-ray just to make sure!.

go to the hospital or a doctors office and get an x-ray to be sure, but until then, don't move it cause you could be causing more damage
