The best way to find out for certain is to get an X-ray.
Broke my hand in August (5th metacarpal - bone in the hand leading to the little finger) and I could feel that the bone segments were not aligned and the bone alignment changed when trying to move the little finger.
Oh, it hurt when I moved the finger, but no more than a really bad bruise.

If you broke it, it's gonna hurt. I had many injuries in my crash but the broken hand (5th metarcpal) bothered me the most. Specially at night when it's healing itself. No way I would have survived without vicodin and motrin.
ya, i think i'm all right, nothings outa place or feels broken, my mom, whos an ex nurse says its fine, so if my little finger falls off i'll go get some help
