What Is the Flu?

The flu (seasonal influenza) is a viral illness that causes various symptoms, from coughing and fever to muscle aches and chills. Influenza generally resolves on its own with at-home treatments—however, some cases may need additional treatments, such as antiviral medications, to reduce the length and severity of the infection.

Testing for Influenza

At Affinity Urgent Care, we offer on-site testing for influenza and similar conditions, such as COVID-19 and bronchitis. Once we receive your results, our medical team can provide a treatment plan to manage your symptoms and help you feel better as soon as possible.

While we can help with current influenza infections, it’s essential to take steps to prevent becoming sick. To avoid illness during the flu season, you can visit Affinity Urgent Care for a flu vaccine to protect yourself.

"We have a special needs daughter who needed her foot looked at. Thankful that Affinity accepted her Medicaid first of all. Staff was nice, did not have a long wait, doctor was knowledgeable and understanding with our daughter, which means a lot. She was able to get x-rays done on her foot and received the results before we left. A great place to go on short notice."

"Facility was very clean. Very short wait. The doctor and x-ray tech were great!!"
