It can be hard to tell what kind of injury you have because twisted ligaments, broken bones, and strained muscles can all hurt the same way. It's important to get a correct diagnosis of your injury so that you can get the right care and heal quickly without any problems.
X-rays are often used to find out what's wrong with someone who has been hurt, but they can also be used for the following:
Children can get hurt from sports and other regular physical exercise. All of our urgent care centers are in good spots and can treat kids older than 6 months. We also have specialists that treat babies older than one week old. Come to one of our centers if you think your child might need an X-ray. You can walk in or book online. We're here to help your family feel better quickly.
There are different types of X-ray imaging and scans available at our urgent care clinics, including:
If you're in need of other imaging services — such as a dental X-ray, fluoroscopy, CT scan or a mammogram — we can refer you to one of our partners within our extensive network.
If you think you might need an X-ray, we're here for you seven days a week to help you talk about your worries and figure out the best way to move forward. Just walk in or book an an appointment online to reserve your spot.
You can save time and money by getting an X-ray at an urgent care instead of going to the emergency room. At NeuMed, you'll get your x-ray results the same day so we can quickly look at your injury and treat it. It's easy, cheaper, and saves time to go to an urgent care clinic that offers X-ray screening services.
An X-ray is a painless process that uses radiation to provide an image of the bones and some organs within the body. A specific chamber with an X-ray machine may invite you to sit, stand, or lay down. You might be requested to hold your breath for a few seconds, depending on the kind of image that is required.
Depending on the quantity of photos required, the healthcare provider will leave the room to perform the scan, which should just take a few seconds.
