### Patient: Doctor, I injured my hand and it's really painful. What tests do you recommend?
### Doctor: Based on your description of your injury, I would recommend a radiographic imaging procedure, also known as a plain x-ray, to determine the extent of the damage. Depending on the results, we may need to apply a splint or suture any wounds. We will also need to manage the wound care and may recommend physical therapy exercises to aid in your recovery. In addition, an occupational therapy assessment may be necessary to determine if speech therapy is needed.
