That you even ask this question suggests an enormous culture gap.
If you suspect you have broken something, OF COURSE you go and see
a doctor. I'm not overly fond of doctors--they're very simple-minded
expert systems--but this sort of mechanical injury is easily diagnosed
(just X-ray it) and treated.

If it's a fracture it might heal crooked, which could give you all
sorts of trouble later on.
