Have you twisted your ankle, pulled a muscle, or fallen and landed hard? Injuries like sprains, strains, and fractures can happen in a variety of ways. At Ochsner Urgent Care, we can help you get the treatment you need to heal properly and get back to your activities. Sprains: A sprain occurs when ligaments, the tough bands connecting bones at a joint, are stretched or torn. Sprains can cause pain, swelling, bruising, and difficulty moving the joint. Strains: A strain happens when a muscle or tendon (the tissue connecting muscle to bone) is stretched or torn. Strains can also cause pain, swelling, bruising, and weakness in the affected area. Fractures: A fracture is a broken bone. Fractures can cause significant pain, swelling, bruising, and deformity in the injured area. Our team will thoroughly examine your injury and may utilize X-rays on-site (if available) to diagnose the severity of your sprain, strain, or fracture. We can then provide you with a personalized treatment plan that may include: - Immobilization (splinting or casting): To stabilize the injured area and promote healing. - Pain medication: To help manage discomfort. - Physical therapy: To regain strength and mobility in the affected area. Early diagnosis and treatment of sprains, strains, and fractures can help prevent complications and promote a faster recovery. Don't hesitate to visit Ochsner Urgent Care if you experience any pain, swelling, or difficulty moving after an injury.
