If i broke my forearm, would my wrist hurt like hell? Also would my pinky finger hurt to bend?

Thanks. I'm waiting for my SO to get home so I can go get an X-ray.

Yes if it is broken the area may feel very warm right over the break. Apply ice and keep it elevated. I hope you are ok.

Did you feel nausea immediately after the injury? That's how I ususally know I broke something.

Thanks ladies. My arm feels warm, but I have a sunburn. I felt a little sick once it happened, but it went away pretty quick.

I have broken SEVERAL bones before, but it has been several years since the last one.

I really hope it's not broken. It is my right arm, the one i use for everything.

When it rains it poors, right?!

I'm sorry. :( I hope you're okay.

When I broke my elbow, most of my arm, hand, and fingers were numb for quite a while. I couldn't even use my fingers to hold a piece of paper.

I hope it's not nearly as serious as you fear.
I wish you quick healing, whatever it is.

I was going to offer some vague advice, but I'm betting you've seen a doctor by now. So...update?
