Suffering from sudden, severe pain? Don’t wait. LA Urgent Care provides fast and effective evaluation and treatment for acute pain, helping you find relief and get back to your life.

Acute pain is sharp, intense pain that comes on suddenly, often as a result of an injury, illness, or surgery. Unlike chronic pain, which is long-lasting, acute pain is your body’s alarm system, signaling that something is wrong. Our experienced medical team is equipped to diagnose the cause of your pain and provide immediate relief. We offer a convenient and trusted alternative to a busy emergency room for non-life-threatening conditions.

Common Causes of Acute Pain We Treat

At LA Urgent Care, we specialize in addressing a wide variety of acute pain conditions, including:

  • Musculoskeletal Pain: Pain resulting from injuries like sprains, strains, fractures, or muscle pulls. This is often caused by sports injuries, falls, or car accidents.
  • Headaches and Migraines: Severe, sudden headaches or migraines that require immediate attention.
  • Abdominal Pain: Pain in the stomach area caused by conditions such as appendicitis, gallstones, or a severe stomach virus.
  • Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs): These can cause sharp pain and burning during urination.
  • Dental Pain: Pain from an abscess, infection, or wisdom tooth issue that needs immediate attention.
  • Kidney Stones: Intense, cramping pain in the back or side that is often severe and requires prompt care.

Our Approach to Acute Pain Management

Our goal is to accurately diagnose the source of your pain and provide a personalized treatment plan to help you feel better quickly.

  • Thorough Evaluation: Our providers will conduct a physical exam and discuss your medical history to understand the nature of your pain. We may also use on-site diagnostic tools, such as X-rays, to identify the cause of your injury.
  • Pain Relief: Based on your diagnosis, we can provide medication to manage your pain. This may include anti-inflammatory drugs, muscle relaxers, or prescription pain relievers for more severe cases.
  • Referrals: For more complex issues or if we determine a higher level of care is needed, we can provide a referral to a specialist, such as an orthopedic surgeon or neurologist, and ensure you get the follow-up care you need.
