Question about occupational therapy for broken finger and damaged tendon that was surgically fixed?We Answered:
No, not at all. An OT can be a specialist in hand therapy, and quite often phyiscal therapist and OT's have very very similar roles. An OT can be a hand specialist, so this is not the case at all. OT's generally look at very fine motor skills, such as writing, and typing, so that fact that it is a finger injury fits in very well with their job profile.You wont "graduate" to PT, as the occupational therapist should be able to do just as much good (if not more) than a PT, as an OT will look at the finger injury hollistically, as in how it affects your life, not just getting it moving again. It may only be a finger, but fingers are important and the fact that you have been given a prescription for OT is possibly actually better than PT.
Good luck, and use the OT as best you can. ask as many questions as you need, and dont be scared about it! :)

Radiograpy vs. Physical Therapy?We Answered:
PTA requires A and P. The first A and P (skeletal and muscles) is the main focus of PT and PTA. You need to flat out know all of the bones and all of the muscles (orgin, insertion, function and intervation) out cold. You also need this for your kinesiology and your orthopedic course (may be called something else).I would recommend that you shadow a PTA. You will need volunteer hours in PT anyway.
