In the medical examination, he reports that it is only possible to use the examination to "treat injuries" of characters with the "injured" status, described on page 620, is that correct?

I'm not sure what you're referencing but there is no such thing as an "injured" status or condition in the CRB.

Sounds like somebody was working based off a document where this type of condition did exist and this wasn't caught in editing although knowing exactly what you're talking about would be helpful in answering the question.

The Wounded condition, maybe?

The wounded condition can be removed with medicine, but you can still restore hit points to someone that never reached zero, and does not have the wounded condition.

I have no idea what "the medical examination" is, or who "he" is in the original post.

On page 249 the Treat Wounds Activity begins:

Quote:

You spend 10 minutes treating one injured living creature

(targeting yourself, if you so choose).

Correct me if I am wrong, but I am making the assumption that English is not your first language, and thus when you say page 620, your page numbers may be different due to a foreign language Core Rule Book.

I believe you are confusing the word "Injured" with the "Wounded" Condition. They are not the same thing. "Wounded" is an actual condition. "Injured" is being used as a colloquialism for missing hit points.

You can Treat Wounds on any willing or unconscious creature that you choose, so long as you have healer's tools and they have not been treated for at least 1 hour.

This probably is the Brazilian version of the book.

The pg. 620 have the condition "ferido" that's can be easily direct translated to injured but this page is talking about wounded condition.

But backing to Medicine checks, you can do booth things with the skill, you can recover HP and recover from wounded condition.

There is no 'injured' condition. That phrase is not mentioned in the CRB (English language edition).

Injured just means 'has taken some damage'. That's all.
