Hand and Finger Injuries from Traumatic Accidents
A person’s negligent mistakes may leave others with serious injuries, potentially including trauma to the hands or fingers. Although these injuries very rarely, if ever, pose a real threat to a person’s life, they can dramatically alter a person’s professional and personal aspirations. A considerable injury to the hand or fingers may leave a person unable to complete even basic tasks that require fine motor skills. Unfortunately, a variety of those injuries can cause a person to suffer physically, emotionally, and financially.
Common Hand and Finger Traumas
When a person sustains an injury to their hand or their fingers, they may need immediate medical care to reduce the possibility of long-term complications. In particular, the following injuries may require substantial treatment:
- Severe lacerations, which often require stitches
- Broken bones
- Damage to finger or thumb joints
- Loss of skin, especially when due to burns
- Amputation
- Infection
These health concerns can have severe consequences for an injured individual, often threatening their ability to return to work after their initial treatment quickly.
