Common reasons to seek urgent minor injury care at Dillman Clinic and Lab include:
Cuts and lacerations
Cuts that are too deep for a regular band-aid may require stitches. At Dillman Clinic and Lab the team can clean and suture your wound to prevent infection, stop the bleeding, and avoid further injury to your skin.
Burns
If you have a first- or second-degree burn, you can visit Dr. Dillman and the team for responsive wound care. The team may clean and sanitize the burn and apply an antibiotic cream to prevent infection.
Small bone fractures
Small finger and toe fractures typically don’t require emergency care. Dr. Dillman and the team will be partnering with Rayus Radiology who will perform X-rays to determine the appropriate treatment for you. They may recommend rest, ice, compression, and elevation (R.I.C.E.), immobilization, or other common fracture treatments to promote healing.
Whiplash
If you experience whiplash — an injury in which the neck rotates quickly and forcefully — your muscles and tendons may cause pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion in your neck. At Dillman Clinic and Lab the team can recommend anti-inflammatory medications, physical therapy, and other rehabilitative treatments to relieve your discomfort and accelerate your recovery.
Treating an urgent minor injury at the first sign of trouble allows you to return home and recover as soon as possible.
