A 29-year-old man is brought to the emergency department because of an injury he sustained to his right hand and wrist when his hand was caught in machinery. He is in great pain but is otherwise stable. The hand is badly mangled with several large lacerations. The bleeding has stopped except for some oozing. The thumb is distorted and is not in the normal anatomic position. The index finger is partially avulsed. Which of the following is the most appropriate first step?
A) Administer a narcotic analgesic
B) Clean and explore the wound to assess tendon injuries
C) Do motor testing of the fingers and thumb
D) Do sensory testing of the fingers and thumb
E) Obtain x-rays of the hand and wrist
