How do I Know if I have broken my thumb?

[TheGreeninata]

I got hit on the thumb playing cricket on the weekend and it immediately hurt. I then put ice on it and that didn't do anything. It is now very sore and swollen and I can't bend it.

Can someone tell me if my thumb is broken plz

Either broken or severe joint damage. If you're playing cricket, you probably live somewhere where medical is free...go to the doctor!
