Answers:
You can tape your little finger to your ring finger to stabilize it but don't strap it so tight you cut off the circulation. Ice and rest and keeping it up (don't let your hand hang to your side) should help. If it really bugs you, get it X-rayed to see if it is broken. Here is a link to the University of Michigan that has info on finger fractures in kids. It could also be dislocated--when the joint separated. Similar treatment.
