Fracture Care and Splinting

At PedsNOW Urgent Care, we understand how distressing it can be when your child experiences a fracture. Our dedicated team of pediatric specialists is committed to providing prompt, professional, and compassionate care to get your child back on their feet as quickly as possible.

Symptoms of a Fracture

Identifying a fracture promptly is crucial to ensure effective treatment. Typical symptoms include intense pain, swelling, bruising, and in some cases, visible deformity. Ensure that your child avoids moving the affected area until professional medical help is available.

Diagnosis and X-Ray

When your child arrives at PedsNOW Urgent Care, our experienced team will conduct a thorough examination, which may include an X-ray. X-ray imaging is a safe and effective method to accurately identify the location and severity of the fracture.

Fracture Care

Splinting is an essential part of the fracture management process. It helps to immobilize the injured area, alleviating pain and preventing further injury. Our pediatric specialists are highly skilled in the application of splints, ensuring a perfect fit for your child for optimal healing.

In some cases, a more substantial form of immobilization, such as a cast, may be required. Rest assured that PedsNOW Urgent Care has an extensive network of trusted orthopedic specialists to whom we can refer your child for casting, if needed.

We are here for you every step of the way, providing comprehensive fracture care for your child when you need it most. Walk-ins are welcome, or you can reserve a spot online to save time.
