Sometimes abdominal pain can be an emergency. Sometimes the emergency is minor but still requires urgent attention, while other times the emergency is major and requires emergency room (ER) care. For minor abdominal pain emergencies, Medallus Urgent Care can provide relief on the spot. We are a walk-in clinic for abdominal pain in Jamestown ND and Fargo ND, so you don’t have to make an appointment!
You can go to an urgent care clinic for a minor abdominal pain emergency. With an urgent care clinic like ours, you can simply walk right in for immediate service. Appointments are never necessary for minor emergencies.
Urgent care is fully qualified to handle minor, non-life-threatening emergencies, so they will be able to diagnose and treat the condition causing your abdominal pain. They can also provide prescription pain medication or refer you to a specialist, if necessary. Some of the conditions our health care providers can handle include acid reflux, food intolerances, urinary tract infections, and more.
This is a very good question and the answer depends entirely on the type and severity of abdominal pain you are experiencing. The general rule is that if you are experiencing abdominal pain that you are sure is not life-threatening, then the situation is minor and you can go to an urgent care clinic. However, if you are unsure whether the pain could be life-threatening, or if it is life-threatening, then you must go to the emergency room.
It can be difficult to tell whether your stomach pain is serious, so if you’re unsure, then you should consider it an emergency and go to the ER. And if any of the following conditions are a concern along with the stomach pain, then you should absolutely seek ER care:
– Chest tightness and upper abdominal pain
– You had recent abdominal surgery or an endoscopy/colonoscopy
– You have a history of gastric bypass surgery, heart attacks, stroke, or heart disease
– You are bleeding and are pregnant
– You are vomiting blood
– You are experiencing blood with your bowel movements
– You have a high fever
– You are having difficulty breathing or chest pain
– You had severe, sudden-onset abdominal pain
If you are experiencing any of the conditions above, then you must call 911 and seek emergency care. Only emergency care is properly equipped to handle major abdominal pain and the symptoms associated with it.
