Physician Assistants (PAs) are trained and licensed to prescribe medications, including antibiotics and pain medications, which can be necessary for treating a badly cut finger, especially if there's a risk of infection or significant pain involved. They work under the supervision of a physician and have the authority to prescribe medication in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, the majority of the U.S. territories, and the uniformed services.
