Sooner is better, ideally within a day or two of the injury. Early evaluation matters because some injuries look minor at first but involve fractures, ligament tears, or other damage that isn't obvious without imaging. Waiting too long can also allow swelling and inflammation to mask the true extent of an injury, which can complicate treatment down the line.
If you're dealing with a sports injury, a fall, or an accident-related injury, our team can typically get you in quickly for an evaluation and start you on the right treatment path before the issue has a chance to worsen.
