To begin, your physician will ask you some background questions regarding your hand history and any injuries you may have incurred. A physical examination will be performed and x-rays will be taken to identify the severity of your situation. In addition, in certain cases your surgeon will order blood tests. At this point, your surgeon will use his/her expertise to diagnose your condition.
