There is the risk of having a permanent non-union. Immobilization is the best course. There is also the risk og nerve damage from the repetitive motion over the nerve. Could cause use and function problems later. There is the risk that chronic pain known as RSD Reflex Sympathetic Dysthrophy could develope. This will require a lot of medication for pain, which could lead to chemical dependency.

Thanks for the advice. That the same thing my doctor told me and was the reason he kept me in the hospital for over 5 days. I'll see if I can work out off my hotel room w/ a laptop computer so I don't have to move around too much. Today I've been wearing a sling on my left arm eeven though it is my right one that is broken. After next week things should calm down where I can rest it more.
