  • Understanding Fractured Limbs:

    Fractures in pets can result from various factors, including accidents, falls, or trauma. These injuries can lead to pain, swelling, and an inability to bear weight on the affected limb. As responsible pet owners, it is crucial to recognize the signs of a fractured limb, such as visible deformity, swelling, or the pet’s reluctance to use the limb. Seeking immediate veterinary care is essential to prevent further complications and facilitate a successful recovery.

  • The Importance of Prompt Veterinary Intervention:

    At Veterinary Urgent Care & Surgery Center, we prioritize prompt veterinary intervention for fractured limbs. Our experienced veterinarians perform a thorough examination and may recommend diagnostic imaging, such as X-rays, to assess the extent and location of the fracture accurately. This information allows us to develop a tailored treatment plan that aligns with the unique needs of your pet.

  • Advanced Fracture Repair Techniques:

    We are equipped with cutting-edge facilities and a skilled surgical team capable of performing a variety of fracture repair techniques. Depending on the type and severity of the fracture, our veterinarians may opt for external fixation, internal fixation, or a combination of both methods. External fixation involves the use of pins, wires, or other devices placed outside the fractured limb to stabilize the bone. Internal fixation, on the other hand, utilizes implants such as plates, screws, or rods to stabilize the fracture internally. Our veterinary professionals meticulously select the most appropriate technique for each case to ensure optimal healing and long-term function.

  • Comprehensive Postoperative Care:

    At Veterinary Urgent Care & Surgery Center, we believe that postoperative care is crucial for successful fracture repair. We provide comprehensive care instructions, including proper wound care, pain management, and controlled exercise protocols tailored to your pet’s specific needs. Our compassionate team will guide you through the recovery process, ensuring that your pet receives the care and attention required for a swift and comfortable healing journey.

  • Rehabilitation and Physical Therapy:

    Restoring mobility and function after a fracture repair is essential for your pet’s overall well-being. We offer rehabilitation and physical therapy services to aid in the recovery process. Our team of experts utilizes various techniques, including therapeutic exercises, hydrotherapy, and laser therapy to improve muscle strength, joint mobility, and overall range of motion. By implementing a customized rehabilitation program, we aim to enhance your pet’s quality of life and help them regain their active lifestyle.
