Can Urgent Care Treat a Fracture? What We Offer with On-Site X-Rays

You twisted your ankle, your kid fell off the trampoline, or you’re feeling sharp pain after a car accident — what now? Many people assume they need to head to the emergency room for injuries like sprains or fractures, but that’s not always true. McAllen Family Urgent Care offers on-site digital X-rays and experienced providers who can treat most non-life-threatening injuries right away.

What Types of Injuries Can Urgent Care Handle?

We treat a wide range of injuries that don’t require surgery or emergency intervention. With on-site digital X-rays, we can confirm the extent of your injury and begin treatment during the same visit.

Common injuries we treat:

• Sprains and strains

• Suspected fractures

• Dislocations

• Sports injuries

• Minor back injuries

• Work or auto-related joint pain

How Our X-Ray Process Works

When you arrive, one of our medical providers will assess your symptoms and order an X-ray if needed. Our digital imaging technology gives us instant results — no outside appointments or long waits. We’ll determine if your injury can be treated here or if a specialist referral is needed.

Bonus: We can provide splints, wraps, medications, and follow-up referrals right on-site.

Why Choose Urgent Care Over the ER?

Unless you’re dealing with a compound fracture or severe trauma, urgent care is often the faster, more affordable solution. You’ll skip the high hospital fees and the 3+ hour wait.
