Personal Injury Pain: Why Urgent Care Should Be Your First Stop for Treatment

Doctor-Asking-Questions-to-Patient-who-is-in-Pain

Unfortunately, pain is an all-too-common problem after a personal injury, whether it's a slip or fall on a slick sidewalk or a sprain from overextending your ankle on the basketball court. Rather than waiting hours at the E.R. or for your primary care physician to have an appointment available, United Pain Urgent Care, serving Reno, NV, and the nearby region, should be your first stop. Our associates can assist.

Find Relief and Receive Treatment Quickly

If you've ever been to the E.R., you know you're usually in for a wait since so many people visit for everything from injuries to respiratory illnesses to serious health conditions, i.e., heart attacks. With so much going on there, often that's more imminent than your injury, you could easily spend hours at the hospital before you even see somebody.

However, visiting our urgent care in Reno, NV, can provide you with care much sooner. You can then find relief from your pain sooner. Plus, you'll have less time to stress over what could be wrong. 

Spend Less 

The price of urgent care is much less than that of a hospital, especially for a personal injury. This is whether you have insurance or not because the overall cost of urgent care is much less, as we have less overhead.

Get Easy Access to Various Services 

In terms of diagnostics and treatment, an urgent care facility offers much easier access to a variety of services. We're often more conveniently located than the hospital, and because there's less wait, we can get you the diagnostics and treatments you need sooner than a hospital would be able to.

Some prime examples of the services we offer include the following: 

  • Stitches
  • X-rays
  • Stabilization of injuries
  • Pain management 

Receive Care Without an Appointment  

A personal injury can happen at any time, especially when you least expect it. Urgent care allows you to simply walk in for those sudden problems without the hassle of making an appointment.

Obtain a Referral 

Like with other healthcare facilities, our urgent care can provide a referral to the appropriate practitioner who can assist further if the care necessary is outside our scope of practice. For instance, let's say you have a back injury causing weakness or numbness in your legs. While we can provide some information and assistance to help, an orthopedist can give you more specialized care, and we can get you to that individual.

The practitioners at United Pain Urgent Care, serving Reno, NV, and the neighboring communities offer convenient care for personal injury, making our urgent care the best place to start. Call our office at (775) 384-1380 to make an appointment.
