Signs of a Stroke
The CDC estimates that as many as 800,000 Americans will suffer from a stroke every year. When a person has a stroke, it means your brain isn’t getting the blood and oxygen it needs to function correctly. This is caused by a burst blood vessel or plaque buildup in your arteries, resulting in a blockage or the formation of blood clots. A stroke results in brain damage, disability, or death.

Fractures and Dislocations
We work closely with many school sports teams, treating fractures and dislocations. Injuries caused by trauma, strains, and issues that may weaken your bones such as fractures and dislocations. So for fractures or dislocations, they need to be seen by a medical professional.
Because a stress fracture can take years to develop. They are only apparent when the break occurs. So the easiest type of fracture to spot is a compound fracture that’s when your broken bone breaks through the skin. Treatments for fractures and dislocations may vary according to severity, but they usually include something to hold a broken bone in place while it heals. A compound fracture may require surgery.
