A Wide Variety of Injury Treatments in Bethesda

A large part of the reasons that we are a top injury clinic in Bethesda is because of the wide variety of injury treatments we can provide to our patients. We want to make sure that the people of Bethesda are living happy, healthy, pain-free lives, and we know that the injury treatments that we provide to our patients play a large role in that. Some of the minor injury treatment services that we provide our Bethesda patients with at Jivana Care’s minor injury unit include:

Animal Bites/Insect Stings

The most common symptoms of infection from animal bites are redness, pain, swelling, and inflammation at the site of the bite.

Cuts/Lacerations

A laceration is cut, tear or opening in the skin caused by an injury. These cuts may be small, and need only minor treatment at home. Or, may be large enough to need emergency medical care.

Minor Burn Treatment

The first thing you should do when you get a minor burn is run cool (not cold) water over the burn area for about 20 minutes. Then wash the burned area with mild soap and water.

Sprains/Muscle Strains

Hepatitis A is usually spread from person to person, making it highly contagious. But certain factors can increase your risk of contracting it.

Suture Removal

Suture removal is performed only when the wound has healed up to a certain extent or when the skin has regained around 10% of its full tensile strength. 

Fractures

A fracture is a break, usually in a bone. If the broken bone punctures the skin, it is called an open or compound fracture. Fractures commonly happen because of car accidents, falls, or sports injuries.
