Get Evaluation: If someone bent you little finger back and caused you to experience extreme persistent pain then you could have a significant soft-tissue injury. You should go have have the finger evaluated by your physician or by an orthopedic surgeon.

Could be broken: You need to be examined by a health care provider to figure out whether or not you have a fracture. A soft tissue injury without fracture will likely be treated without surgery. Buddy taping the small finger to the ring finger is a common way to protect and splint an injured hyperextended finger together with a small splint on the top of the injured finger to avoid hyperextension.
