What Is Urgent Care, and When Should I Visit?

Urgent care is a medical term for non-life-threatening conditions that still require timely attention. It bridges the gap between emergency room situations and primary care. In either case, you should seek urgent care to remedy the following situations:

  • Cold, flu, or COVID-19 symptoms
  • Minor sprains and strains
  • Ear infections or sore throat
  • Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
  • Mild allergic reactions or rashes
  • Minor cuts, burns, or injuries
  • Work or school physicals
  • Preventive check-ups and labs

However, if you are experiencing chest pain, shortness of breath, signs of stroke, or severe trauma, call 911 or visit a nearby emergency room immediately!
