For most chronic medical problems, you should go to your regular healthcare
provider first. You’ll get the best care there because they know
you and your medical history. Generally, you should go to urgent care
clinics when your doctor is unavailable, but certain issues warrant a
trip to the emergency room.
A trip to the ER should not be taken lightly, go if you are experiencing
the following symptoms:
Life-threatening problems
Chest pain
Severe abdominal pain
Coughing or vomiting blood
Severe burns
Deep cuts or bleeding that won’t stop
Sudden blurred vision
Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath
