When to Seek Urgent Care for a Broken Bone
Minor bone fractures—such as greenstick fractures, hairline fractures, transverse fractures, and spiral fractures—can be treated professionally and promptly at an urgent care clinic, but more severe breaks can send you to the emergency room. If you experience intense pain, notice the injured part of your body looking distinctly different than normal, or can see the bone through the skin, seek emergency care as quickly as possible. On the other hand, a minor bone fracture that can be treated by PhysicianOne Urgent Care may cause less-severe symptoms like:
- Pain
- Swelling
- Tenderness
- Bruising
- An inability to move the injured part of the body normally
Treating Minor Fractures
The team of highly trained medical professionals at PhysicianOne Urgent Care can diagnose minor bone fractures before treating them through a personalized plan. This may include applying a splint or cast, which will aid in the healing process and prevent the injury from worsening.
