Urgent care is the best place to go if you or a loved one has a minor cut that needs stitches. A minor cut is one that is bleeding controllably, and handling this kind of minor injury is no problem for urgent care. They can provide stitches right on the spot, as well as wound repair, treatment for minor animal bites, treatment for simple sports injuries, and stabilization of minor fractures. Urgent care can treat minor fractures, but it’s important to remember that some fractures can be life-threatening. For instance, a fracture in which the bone is puncturing the skin is life-threatening. Simple fractures, though, and other simple injuries can be handled by an urgent care clinic like Eastside Urgent Care. With us, no appointment is necessary and we’re available 7 days a week, so you can come see us just about whenever you need minor injury care near you. Family members of any age are welcome too, but children must be accompanied by an adult.
