I visited the Urgent Care Plus location regarding my daughter’s seasonal allergies last week.
Doctor Luk and his team are doing a fantastic job and trying to do everything to ensure the patient was treated correctly and answered all the questions before the patient left.
Dr. Luk is so knowledgeable and welcoming, and nurses are very friendly with patients and their families.
I’m so glad they’re close to my home.
Signs of Dehydration and When to Seek Care
Mild dehydration can often be managed at home, but more serious cases need medical attention–especially if you’re losing fluids quickly or unable to rehydrate.
You may need urgent care if you experience:
- Persistent vomiting
- Dizziness or lightheadedness
- Rapid heartbeat
- Dry mouth or lips
- Inability to keep liquids down
- Low urine output or dark-colored urine
- Fatigue, confusion, or weakness
In young children or older adults, dehydration can escalate quickly. If you’re concerned, don’t wait–walk in and get evaluated.
What’s Causing Your Nausea or Dehydration?
At Urgent Care Plus & Wellness, we take a full medical history and examine each patient thoroughly to determine the underlying cause of symptoms. Common culprits include:
- Stomach viruses (viral gastroenteritis)
- Food poisoning or contaminated food
- Heat exhaustion or heat-related illness
- Medication side effects
- Migraines or motion sickness
- Chronic conditions like diabetes or kidney disease
We’ll make sure you get an accurate diagnosis and the right treatment–without the ER wait or price tag.
How We Treat Dehydration and Nausea
After evaluating your symptoms, Dr. Luke may recommend:
- IV fluid therapy to replenish electrolytes and fluids quickly
- Anti-nausea medication (oral or IV)
- Rest and rehydration guidance for home recovery
- Lab testing or urinalysis if further evaluation is needed
- Referral to specialists if an underlying condition is suspected
