Medical Facts

If you believe you or someone you love is having a heart attack or stroke, or any other life-threatening condition, you shouldn’t head to the urgent care clinic but should immediately go to a hospital emergency worm where they have the right equipment and personnel to deal with this kind of situations. Urgent care is for serious medical issues but not emergencies like suspected infections, minor-to-moderate cuts and burns, and sprains and fractures.

Wound Care Treatment Services

Wounds like cuts, bites, punctures, etc. need special care. You need to clean and apply a bandage to avoid any risk of infection. When you get a wound, you should come immediately to an urgent care unit for specialized assistance.

Fractures

For extreme fractures, (like in cases where the bone breaches the skin), you should immediately call or go to an emergency room. Broken bones might cause intense pain when pressure is applied, swelling, bleeding, bruises, limited mobility, and out-of-place limbs. If you suspect that you or a loved one may have a broken bone, contact our clinic for an examination.

Treating Insect and Bee Stings

Usually, insect stings cause only redness or itching. In severe cases, these stings can result in more severe reactions such as anaphylaxis (an acute allergic reaction) or loss of consciousness. We always advise you to visit an urgent care physician and if you have a severe allergic reaction to an insect or bee sting, you should seek emergency treatment immediately. For minor cases, first, remove the stinger and clean the zone with soap and water. After that, you can apply a cool compress to reduce swelling. You can also apply a cream or lotion such as calamine to reduce itching.
