Obviously if it doesn't get better I'll see a doctor or maybe I'm just a skitzofrinic!. I don't know!.!.!.!.(help!!.!.!.I'm typing with one hand!) Www@Answer-Health@Com

haha, I did something similar on my dirtbike except it was my index finger!. I could move it and everything, it was just painful especially when I straightened it out!. I went and got it x-rayed and it turned out that I had a minor fracture and it healed rather fast, they didn't even give me a finger splint, just sent me on my way home!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Could be a broken thumb or could be just jammed!. If you're waiting to go see a doctor, ice it in the meantime and if it's swollen take some ibuprofen or aleve!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
