You would want to make a splint to keep the finger from moving and then ice it. Popsickle sticks taped to the finger work as great splints.

you will need to have it looked after by a doctor, who will cast or splint it, if you do not then you may run the risk of not having it set properly and you could lose the use of it.

What does it feel like if your thumb is broken?

Swelling, pain, lack of total mobility, a feeling of hotness, contusions and discoloration from hematoma. Note that these are also the symptoms of a bad jam or sprain. Broken thumb generally occurs near the junction of the thumb with the hand or the metacarpo-phalangeal joint. So a broken thumb is frequently accompanied with a dislocation or subluxation of this joint. Unless the fracture is unusually severe, and you can see angulation of the extremity, or ends of the broken bone (which is rare), there is no way to tell the thumb is broken without imagery. An xray at least is required to confirm.
