Orthopedic Injuries We Commonly Evaluate at AFC Denver

Bones, muscles, joints, tendons, and ligaments work together to keep your body moving. When one of these structures becomes injured, even simple tasks like walking, driving, or lifting can become uncomfortable. Our providers diagnose and treat many common orthopedic conditions, including but not limited to:

• Sprained ankles and wrists
• Knee injuries
• Shoulder pain
• Hip injuries
• Elbow pain
• Hand, finger, foot injuries
• Muscle strains
• Minor fractures
• Tendon injuries
• Joint inflammation
• Back injuries
• Sports-related ortho injuries

If your symptoms began after a fall, collision, overuse, or sudden movement, it’s important to have your injury evaluated before returning to normal activities. If your injury has severe deformity, heavy bleeding, numbness with a loss of circulation, or is life-threatening, seek immediate care at the emergency room. 

Fast Answers with On-Site Digital X-Ray Imaging at AFC Denver University Hills

After an orthopedic injury, one of the first questions patients ask is, “Did I break something?” At AFC Urgent Care Denver University Hills, on-site digital X-ray technology allows our providers to quickly determine whether your injury may involve a fracture or dislocation. Receiving imaging during your visit often eliminates the need to travel to another facility, helping you receive answers and begin treatment sooner. If additional testing or specialized orthopedic care is recommended, we’ll help coordinate the next steps so you can continue your recovery with confidence.

Comprehensive Treatment Designed Around Your Recovery

No two injuries heal exactly the same way. Your provider will develop a treatment plan based on the type of injury, its severity, your activity level, and your overall health. Treatment may include splints or braces for stabilization, compression and supportive wraps, pain management, wound care if applicable, and recommendations for rest and gradual activity. Our team can also provide return-to-work documentation, follow-up recommendations, and referral to orthopedic specialists when advanced care may be needed.
