03

Patient’s Reviews about Priority Urgent Care


Frequently Asked Questions About Bone Fractures

Yes. Urgent care clinics can evaluate many suspected minor fractures and provide initial treatment. At Priority Urgent Care, our providers assess the injury, recommend X-rays when necessary, and determine whether stabilization or orthopedic follow-up is needed. Severe fractures and major trauma require emergency care.

Yes. Priority Urgent Care has on-site X-ray services that can help evaluate suspected broken bones. Not every injury requires imaging, and some fractures may need additional testing if an initial X-ray does not show the injury clearly.

Fractures and sprains can both cause pain, swelling, bruising, and difficulty moving. A fracture involves a broken bone, while a sprain affects the ligaments supporting a joint. Because the symptoms often overlap, a medical examination and sometimes an X-ray are needed to tell them apart.

It depends on the location and severity of the fracture. Some injuries can be initially stabilized with a splint or sling, while others require a cast, specialized treatment, or surgery. Your provider will explain the recommended next steps and whether orthopedic follow-up is necessary.

Some people can still walk with certain fractures, so being able to bear weight does not rule out a broken bone. Avoid putting weight on an injured foot or ankle until you’ve received appropriate medical guidance. Severe deformity, numbness, or circulation changes require emergency evaluation.

Seek emergency care for an open fracture, major deformity, heavy bleeding, severe trauma, or numbness and discoloration beyond the injury. Suspected fractures involving the neck, spine, or pelvis also need emergency assessment. Do not try to straighten or reposition a visibly broken bone yourself.

No. Priority Urgent Care welcomes walk-in patients for non-emergency injuries. Our team can assess your symptoms and determine whether X-rays or initial stabilization are appropriate. You can also use online check-in before your visit.
