Skin infections or rashes can cause pain, itching, and discomfort. At GoHealth Urgent Care, we can get to the bottom of inflamed, red, or irritated skin. We can identify and diagnose most skin conditions and provide you with the treatment you deserve. If you notice any type of rash and it doesn't seem to go away over time on its own, it's recommended that you seek emergency care.
The best way to determine the cause of the skin infection or rash is to have it evaluated by a healthcare provider, especially if it doesn't go away on its own within 2 to 3 days. The emergency doctor can provide treatment and relief for most rashes, but if the rash covers most of your body, occurs on your genitals, or causes difficulty breathing or swallowing, go to the emergency room to have your rash treated. We emphasize the value of the traditional relationship between patient and doctor and, at the same time, we keep abreast of all technical developments to provide the best possible medical care. If you notice any of the following symptoms, it's important to visit the nearest PhysicianOne emergency center to be evaluated by an expert. There's a long list of reasons why people can develop blisters, but if you have a rash and it's now bubbling up, urgent care is the right place for your needs. Skin irritation can have many underlying causes, so it's important to work with an experienced provider to get an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.
Every mysterious rash doesn't require a visit to an urgent care facility, but in some cases the rashes are severe enough to require medical attention. At PhysicianOne Urgent Care, you can get timely treatment without an appointment for a fraction of what the average emergency room charges. So how can you avoid this unwanted rash? Your best line of defense is to know what to look for and how to protect yourself. If you're not sure why you have a rash and now blisters form, you should go to the urgent care center right away.
