Bronchitis affects millions of Americans every single year. It can be a stand-alone virus, or it can happen after another illness like the flu. Acute bronchitis will go away over time, but chronic bronchitis lasts much longer. AFC Urgent Care Hillsdale is ready to help treat the most persistent symptoms.
Bronchitis is a virus that affects the upper respiratory tract. It infects the airways and produces mucus, causing a sticky cough. Acute bronchitis can last nearly three weeks, whereas chronic bronchitis can last up to a few months.
In most cases, acute bronchitis is caused by another virus such as the flu or COVID-19. When visiting AFC Hillsdale, your provider will test your symptoms for other general illnesses. The most common symptoms of bronchitis include:
It can seem easier to suffer from your symptoms instead of waiting for an appointment with your primary care physician. With AFC Urgent Care Hillsdale, you can walk into our center and wait for less than 15 minutes before you’re seen by a provider. With our on-site lab, our providers can diagnose your symptoms and provide recommended treatment options for the same day.
Antibiotics are not effective against most cases of bronchitis. If your provider suspects a bacterial infection, then antibiotics will work. Prescription cough medicines or fever reducers can help alleviate symptoms as you get better. Rest and drinking plenty of fluids also help in aid of bronchitis.
AFC Urgent Care Hillsdale is ready to help treat your symptoms and get you back on track. We accept most major health insurance plans and offer low costs. Visit our walk-in center seven days a week between 8AM - 8PM to get your symptoms treated.
If you’re dealing with a pressing, non-life-threatening medical issue and don’t want to see a doctor, urgent care could be for you. AFC walk-in clinics are able to see patients dealing with allergic reactions, broken bones, colds and flus, and much more.
Urgent care is for medical conditions that require prompt attention but do not pose an immediate threat to your health or life. Here is a simple rule of thumb: if your medical issues(s) are life threatening, call 911, or go directly to a hospital emergency room. If not, an urgent care center such as AFC is an excellent alternative.
The main advantage of choosing AFC is our short wait times – often under 15 minutes. The total length of your visit will depend on what you’re being seen for, but many patients can be in and out of our clinics in around 30 minutes.
