Asthma
We offer quick and effective urgent care for children and adults with chronic and seasonal asthma, without the hassles of visiting a typical doctor’s office or the high cost of going to the emergency room.
Symptoms of Asthma
Common symptoms of an asthma attack include:
Wheezing
Coughing
Difficulty catching breath
Tightness in the chest
How will a WellNow medical provider treat my asthma?
Asthma treatment measures vary widely based on the severity of a given attack. Mild asthma flare-ups can require as little as a rescue inhaler, while some asthma attacks may require emergency room treatment followed by further observation. At WellNow we are able to prescribe common asthma medications including a rescue inhaler, steroid inhaler or a steroid injection.
When should you visit urgent care for asthma treatment?
If you are experiencing any of the symptoms listed above, utilize your rescue inhaler and seek medical treatment immediately if symptoms do not subside. Check in online or walk in to a WellNow location nearest you.
