Yes, Specialty Urgent Care is fully equipped to treat concussions, also known as mild traumatic brain injuries (mTBIs), which are often a result of falls, sports-related incidents, or vehicular accidents. Our healthcare facility is designed to diagnose and manage less severe cases of concussions. When you visit Specialty Urgent Care with a suspected concussion, our healthcare providers, who have undergone specialized training to recognize and evaluate concussions, will conduct an evaluation that may include: • Physical examination: Evaluating for signs of trauma, neurological deficits, and balance difficulties. • Cognitive assessment: Assessing memory, attention, and problem-solving abilities. • Balance testing: Determining if balance is impaired, suggesting vestibular involvement. Based on the evaluation, our providers can determine the appropriate course of action. Most concussions do not require advanced medical intervention, and our providers may recommend conservative management, including rest, over-the-counter pain relievers, and avoidance of strenuous activities until symptoms resolve. However, concussions with specific symptoms, such as severe headaches, loss of consciousness, or seizures, warrant further evaluation. In these cases, our providers may refer patients to neurologists, neurosurgeons, or emergency departments for specialized care. After the initial treatment, our providers typically provide follow-up instructions for concussion recovery and regular monitoring of symptoms to ensure proper healing and identify any complications. Patients are advised to report persistent symptoms or any worsening conditions to us. Immediate medical attention is necessary if an individual loses consciousness, even briefly, experiences persistent or worsening headaches, develops nausea or vomiting, exhibits confusion or disorientation, has difficulty balancing or moving, or seizes or convulses. We facilitate appropriate care for mild cases while identifying those requiring specialized treatment, ensuring optimal patient outcomes. However, more serious cases should be treated in a hospital setting.
