What Are Acute Illnesses?
At Younger Medical Health and Wellness in Queen Creek and Scottsdale, AZ, our team provides care for a variety of acute illnesses that can affect patients of all ages. Acute illnesses, including urinary tract infections (UTIs) and upper respiratory infections (URIs), often appear suddenly. They may be caused by infections, injuries, or seasonal illnesses with symptoms that range in severity. While some acute illnesses may resolve independently, others require medical attention to manage symptoms and reduce discomfort. Our experienced team is here to offer prompt care and effective treatments to help patients recover swiftly and safely.
What Treatment Options Are Available for Acute Illnesses?
Our team at Younger Medical Health and Wellness offers a range of treatments tailored to each individual's needs. For URIs, we may recommend medications to reduce congestion and relieve cough while asthma and COPD exacerbations might require inhalers or bronchodilators to support easier breathing. For UTIs, we provide both immediate relief with antibiotics and guidance on UTI prevention to reduce recurrence. Additionally, gastrointestinal conditions and skin issues are managed with specific therapies, including anti-inflammatory medications and dietary guidance to help ease symptoms.
What Are the Symptoms of Acute Illnesses?
Symptoms can vary, depending on the type of illness or injury but may include a combination of the following:
- Persistent sore throat, nasal congestion, and cough, often associated with upper respiratory infections (URIs)
- Fever, chills, or fatigue, common in infections like the flu or pneumonia
- Burning sensation and discomfort during urination, along with increased urgency, often indicating urinary tract infections (UTIs)
- Shortness of breath, wheezing, or chest tightness in cases of asthma attacks or COPD exacerbations
- Skin rashes or irritation, which may accompany allergic reactions or infections
- Stomach discomfort, nausea, and vomiting, frequently associated with gastroenteritis
If you experience any of these symptoms, seeking medical attention can provide a proper diagnosis and appropriate care to ease discomfort and prevent complications.
Younger Medical Health and Wellness Reviews
This office and this doctor made me feel important and I have been all over the United States have been able to have a zoom appointment and an inside appointment takes Medicare. Yeah good guy all around great office. Thanks so much for alleviating my blood pressure just by talking.
Great experience each time I head in for a visit/check up. Dr. Young is awesome and the entire staff is friendly and understanding (I can be a pain).
Dr. Young was great. First appointment he took some extra time to get to know me and make sure he was prescribing exactly what was needed not taking anything for granted. His care was much appreciated.
Amazing listener and extremely helpful. Takes time - Love his likeness to the family doctors of years gone by forever!He cares!
The doctor was very courteous and professional, he is one of the best doctors I've ever had and I'm 75 years old and I've had a lot of doctors
