No you would know if it was broken. The pain would be pretty great and it would be deformed in the place it was broken. Its more likely a pretty good sprain that can take up to a month to heal. When playing sports tape it up really good and you should be fine. Not always a bad idea to get it checked out.

Could be a number of things....fracture, tendon injury, tissue damage. If you can bend your thumb ok,then it is'nt broken,but you still need to get it checked

Most likely, the best way of finding out is getting an x-ray done.
