Urgent Care for skin infections and rashes

Your skin is the largest organ in your body and keeping it healthy should be a top priority. But skin infections, rashes or irritation are unfortunately common. Skin irritation can have many underlying causes, so it is important to work with an experienced provider to get an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

Skin infection and rash symptoms

Your skin is in constant contact with the outside world, which means it is constantly prone to rashes, infections and irritation. Common symptoms of skin problems can include:

  • Blisters, bumps, or boils
  • Itchiness, redness, or scales
  • Pain and irritation
  • Muscle aches and fever

Any of these can be a sign of a treatable skin problem or even an unexpected underlying condition. Don’t wait to see a provider to help uncover the underlying cause and get the treatment you need.
