Final answer:

The question appears to contain a typo referring to a 'mechanic' examining a hand. Assuming a medical professional was meant, the best options are to get a second opinion or to ask for more details about the exam.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a mechanic looks at your hand and says there is nothing wrong, it seems like there might be a misunderstanding, as mechanics are not trained in health or medical diagnosis.

Therefore, if you have concerns about your hand, the appropriate action would be to see a medical professional like a doctor. If a doctor examines your hand and tells you that there is nothing wrong but you are still experiencing pain or discomfort, you should consider the following options:

  1. Get a second opinion from another medical professional to confirm the initial assessment.
  2. Ask the doctor for more details about what they checked during the examination to understand why they believe there is nothing wrong.

Ignoring advice from a qualified medical professional or continuing to use your hand if it hurts could lead to worsening the condition. Thanking the mechanic (or doctor) and leaving without addressing your concerns is also not advisable. The safety and health of your hand should be a priority.
