Our Joint Pain Treatment Approach
At True Compassion Urgent Care, we take a thorough approach to diagnosing and treating joint pain. Our providers perform comprehensive physical examinations to assess range of motion, stability, and signs of inflammation. When needed, we use our on-site X-ray capabilities to identify fractures, arthritis, or other structural issues. Based on our findings, we create a personalized treatment plan that may include medications, joint injections, splinting, and referrals to specialists when appropriate.

Recovery & Pain Management
Recovery from joint pain varies based on the underlying cause. Acute injuries may require rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE) along with temporary activity modification. Arthritis flare-ups often respond to anti-inflammatory medications and may benefit from joint injections for longer-lasting relief. We provide detailed instructions for home care, including exercises to maintain mobility and strength. Follow up with us if your pain doesn't improve within the expected timeframe, or immediately if you develop fever, severe swelling, or inability to bear weight on the affected joint.
