Our team at Integrity Urgent Care wants our communities to feel equipped with a good understanding of common ailments, injuries, and concerns so when they are feeling under the weather, they can begin to think about how to begin caring for themselves and when to come see us.

While the holiday season may often be described and thought of as the most wonderful time of the year, it is also a time filled with the potential for accidents and injuries.

Just as a new parent thinks they may be getting into a routine with their little one, little white spots start appearing on the baby’s gums, causing havoc and changing their routine completely. Experienced parents know these telltale signs of teething, but also know every child and every “batch” of teeth is different. How you and your child can work through teething will depend on a number of things.
As if learning how to care for a new baby wasn’t hard enough, with recovery on top of everything else, some babies develop extra issues for mom, dad, or other caretakers to worry about.

While some babies do develop colic, not every fussy baby is colicky, but there are ways to find out and solutions to consider.
As painful as a urinary tract infection can be for an adult, imagine having to feel that discomfort as a child or to be a parent working to figure out why their child is in pain or showing symptoms of sickness.

Injuries, especially minor injuries, are common in youth and even more common in youth athletics.

While Integrity Urgent Care is available to help you with the medical care your athlete needs, there are basic guidelines you can use on the court, field, or other location.
