Hand injuries and disorders constitute a major cause of disability and time lost from work. Viewed as relatively minor, they are often neglected until permanent disability and restriction of function occur. The first physician to evaluate and treat an injured hand often determines the ultimate outcome of the patient's hand function. Skillful diagnosis and appropriate treatment are necessary. Neglected or mistreated injury may result in significant impairment in a person whose livelihood depends on the skillful, integrated function of both hands.
手部损伤和疾病是导致残疾和工作时间损失的主要原因。由于被视为相对轻微，它们常常被忽视，直到出现永久性残疾和功能受限。首位评估和治疗受伤手部的医生往往决定了患者手部功能的最终结果。熟练的诊断和恰当的治疗是必要的。对于一个生计依赖双手熟练综合功能的人来说，被忽视或治疗不当的损伤可能导致严重的功能障碍。
