Frequently Asked
Minor Procedures Questions
What minor medical procedures can urgent care perform?
Lansing Urgent Care performs a variety of minor medical procedures, including abscess drainage, foreign body removal, wound care, incision and drainage, splinting, staple and suture removal, earwax removal, and other treatments that don’t require hospitalization. Our providers can evaluate your condition and determine whether it can be safely treated during your visit.
When should I visit urgent care instead of the emergency room?
Urgent care is a great option for minor injuries and medical conditions that require prompt attention but are not life-threatening. If you have a minor cut, skin infection, splinter, small burn, or another condition that may require a simple procedure, our providers can often treat it without the long wait or higher cost of an emergency room visit.
Can urgent care remove foreign objects from the skin?
Yes. Our providers routinely remove splinters, glass, fishhooks, metal fragments, and other foreign objects from the skin. Prompt removal helps reduce pain and lowers the risk of infection or additional tissue damage.
Do minor procedures require stitches or surgery?
Not always. Many procedures can be completed using local anesthesia and specialized medical instruments without the need for surgery. If stitches are necessary, your provider will discuss the procedure and provide detailed instructions for caring for the area afterward.
Will my procedure be painful?
Most minor procedures involve little discomfort. When appropriate, your provider will numb the area with a local anesthetic before beginning treatment to help keep you as comfortable as possible. You may experience mild soreness afterward, but most patients tolerate these procedures very well.
How long do minor medical procedures take?
Most procedures can be completed during a single visit and often take less than 30 minutes, depending on the complexity of the condition. Your total visit time may vary based on the type of procedure and whether additional evaluation or imaging is needed.
Will I receive aftercare instructions?
Yes. Before you leave, your provider will review how to care for the treated area, explain what to expect during healing, discuss activity restrictions if needed, and let you know when to return for a follow-up visit or seek additional medical attention.
When should I go to the emergency room instead?
Go to the emergency room if you have severe bleeding that won’t stop, deep wounds involving tendons or bones, major trauma, severe burns, eye injuries, large animal bites, or any injury causing loss of function or severe deformity. These conditions often require specialized emergency care.
Does urgent care perform procedures without an appointment?
Yes. Walk-ins are welcome at Lansing Urgent Care every day. Many minor procedures can be evaluated and treated during the same visit, helping you receive prompt care without waiting for an appointment.
Do I need a referral for a minor medical procedure?
No. You do not need a referral to be evaluated at Lansing Urgent Care. Simply walk in or save your spot online, and our providers will determine the best treatment for your condition.
