Answers:
If you have not had trauma, (fall, etc) then I would not suggest a fracture unless you have an underlying medical problem!. Unless one gets an x-ray, then one really does not if it is fractured or not!. Other injuries as described such as sprain, strains, and even carpal tunnel syndrome!.

Not getting it treated can potentially have bad consequences!.

See a health care practitioner to be sure if everything is okay!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

I can answer from experience that leaving any significant injury untreated can, but not always, end up with pretty unfavorable results!. If you've broken your arm, and you wait around a month to get it treated (cough); you may have some permanent damage to your arm, even if you do get it treated by a professional!. This can be anything from soreness to swolleness, and in my own case, it seems to be quite permanent, and although nothing life-threatening or even near that level, it is quite inconvenient at times!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Its probably a sprain if its in your wrist area!. But arm could be a fracture from a fall!. If you have been engaging in physical activity it could just be sore!. But if the pain i still there in a week go see a Physician!. He'll let you know!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
