Overview

Sprains and fractures can look identical without imaging. At Reddy Urgent Care, we use on-site digital X-ray to confirm whether an injury is a sprain (soft tissue) or a fracture (bone), ensuring you receive the right treatment from the start.

Symptoms We Treat

  • Pain and swelling at a joint following a twist or impact
  • Difficulty bearing weight on the injured area
  • Bruising around a joint
  • Joint tenderness when touched
  • Reduced range of motion
