Lacerations & Splinting IN TAMARAC, FL

At AAA Urgent Care in Tamarac, FL, patients presenting with lacerations receive comprehensive and prompt care. The process begins with immediate wound cleaning and debridement to remove debris and reduce the risk of infection. Local anesthesia may then be administered to ensure that the repair procedure is as pain-free as possible. Once the area is properly prepared, the laceration is carefully repaired using sutures, staples, or adhesive techniques, depending on the severity and location of the wound.

Following the medical service, a sterile dressing is applied to protect the area and promote a clean healing environment. In cases where there is an associated injury, such as a suspected fracture or severe soft tissue damage, splinting is provided to immobilize the area and support the healing process. Additionally, follow-up care is scheduled to monitor the wound’s progress, manage any potential complications, and adjust treatment as needed.
