Base of 5th MT fracture ideally requires plater, not ordinary bandage. It is important you consult Orthopaedic Surgeon for management. This may cause problems in future.

consult your orthopedician for POP casting. So, that the fracture is immobilized and aligned and heals much faster . also surgery may be needed if it does not heal within 6-8 weeks.
Next Steps
Consult Orthopedician for POP casting and further management.
