Injuries and illnesses

Ear infections are painful for the little ones who get them. Although common to babies and toddlers under 3, they can occur in anyone and are caused by inflammation of the middle ear due to bacteria or virus. Our clinic can examine your symptoms and get you proper treatment. We also care for many other illnesses and injuries, including these:

• Sore and strep throats
• Sprains and muscle strains
• Cough and bronchitis
• Allergies, cold and flu symptoms
• Gout and joint pain
• Sinus infections
• Mouth and oral pain
• Minor cuts and wounds
• Nausea, vomiting and diarrhea

Minor burns affecting the outer skin are painful nonetheless. Whether you have received a burn from chemicals, the sun, hot liquids or fire, we can evaluate the injury and suggest a cream or pain reliever. If the burn is infected, we may also prescribe antibiotics and administer a tetanus shot if necessary.

Cold and flu symptoms

If you have children, the chances are good that you have colds too, which typically make the rounds of the entire family. Because flu and colds can share symptoms, such as runny noses, sore throats and coughing, it’s important to know for sure. Our MinuteClinic® practitioners can assess your illness and test for influenza to ensure proper treatment and ease the aches and pains. To prevent influenza, bring family members in for a flu shot at the start of flu season each fall. Along with flu vaccine, we can administer a range of immunizations for children and adults, including measles, pneumonia and more.

Rashes and skin conditions

Skin rashes can be painful and embarrassing as well. Our practitioners can offer treatment for a variety of rashes, such as:

• Poison oak
• Shingles
• Scabies
• Chicken pox
• Impetigo
• Minor psoriasis
• Ringworm
• Swimmer’s itch

Prompt treatment is essential to prevent symptoms from getting worse or spreading. Get relief for your symptoms and, if needed, a plan for managing ongoing conditions when you visit our clinic.
