Wound examination: Having the wound examined by a medical provider will determine if any tendon injury has occurred which might result in loss of function of the finger. Wound cleaning and closure will be performed if necessary.

Finger laceration: If you have a deep laceration -especially if it involves finger structure or doesn't close easily - warrants assessment. Cut on clean or duty object? When was your last tetanus shot?
