Your skin is your body’s first line of defense, and when something goes wrong, it can be uncomfortable, painful, and even alarming. At InMotion Health, we offer fast, professional care for common dermatologic conditions without the wait, hassle, or exposure of a traditional urgent care clinic. Whether you’re dealing with a sudden rash, an insect bite, or a minor infection, our providers bring expert dermatology support directly to your home or hotel room.
What is Dermatology?
Dermatology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the skin, hair, and nails. Our urgent care providers treat a wide range of acute skin concerns in both adults and children, from inflammatory reactions to infections and minor wounds. Using a combination of virtual assessments, in-home visits, and lab testing through our diagnostic partners, we can identify the cause and recommend the right treatment quickly and discreetly.
Rashes & Hives
Rashes and hives are common skin reactions often caused by allergies, infections, or irritants. Symptoms like redness, itching, or raised welts can be uncomfortable and disruptive.
Eczema
Eczema is a chronic skin condition that causes dryness, itching, and inflammation. Whether you’re managing a first-time flare or long-term symptoms, we offer soothing prescription treatments and advice on daily skincare routines to help control irritation.
Bug Bites & Stings
From mosquito bites to bee stings, insect-related skin reactions can be painful, itchy, and sometimes cause swelling or allergic reactions. We assess the severity and offer relief or further care if infection is present.
Sunburn
Overexposure to UV rays can result in painful sunburns that may blister or peel. We offer in-home care for mild to moderate sunburns and recommendations to promote healing and avoid complications.
Acne
Whether hormonal, stress-induced, or related to skincare products, acne can be physically uncomfortable and emotionally frustrating. We treat acute acne flare-ups quickly and effectively. For longer-term management, we can connect you with a dermatologist for ongoing care
Warts
Caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), warts are non-cancerous skin growths that may appear on hands, feet, or other areas. We help identify the type of wart and recommend or prescribe effective treatments.
Fungal Infections
Fungal skin infections like athlete’s foot, ringworm, or yeast rashes are common and contagious but easily treatable. We offer guidance and treatment to help eliminate the infection and prevent it from spreading or returning.
Skin Infections
Skin infections such as impetigo, cellulitis, or infected cuts can lead to redness, swelling, pain, and pus; prompt care helps relieve discomfort and prevent complications. We’ll prescribe the right treatment to help clear your infection.
Lice
Head lice are tiny parasites that spread quickly among children and adults through close contact. Our discreet, at-home evaluation and prescription treatment plans help eliminate lice effectively throughout the entire household.
Scabies
Scabies is a highly contagious skin condition caused by microscopic mites that burrow into the skin; we diagnose and treat scabies to avoid reinfection of you or close contacts.
Minor Wound Care
For cuts, scrapes, and other small injuries, professional wound care reduces the risk of infection and helps promote faster healing. Our providers clean, assess, and treat wounds during in-home visits.
Minor Allergic Reaction
Redness, itching, swelling, or hives can signal an allergic skin reaction. We evaluate the cause, treat symptoms, and advise on future avoidance to relieve discomfort.
Cold Sores
Cold sores, caused by the herpes simplex virus, are painful and often recurring. We offer antiviral medications to shorten the duration of outbreaks and ease discomfort.
Laceration Repairs
Accidental cuts and lacerations can happen quickly, and knowing when and how to treat them is essential. Whether from a fall, kitchen mishap, or other injury, deep or gaping wounds often require professional closure to heal properly. Our providers will thoroughly clean the wound, assess any underlying damage, and determine the best method of closure. Prompt care helps prevent infection, supports proper healing, and reduces the risk of long-term scarring.
Suture & Staple Removal
Once a laceration or surgical wound has healed, the next step is timely removal of sutures or staples. Leaving them in too long can cause skin irritation or scarring, while removing them too early can delay healing; we’ll assess the site for signs of proper healing, remove the stitches or staples with sterile tools, and provide any necessary wound care or dressing afterward. This eliminates the need for a return trip to the clinic, especially for patients with mobility issues or busy schedules.
Incision & Drainage of Abscesses
Abscesses are painful, swollen lumps under the skin caused by infection that can become serious if left untreated. While antibiotics are sometimes helpful, many abscesses require a minor incision and drainage (I&D) procedure to resolve fully. InMotion Health provides this service in the comfort and privacy of your own home, using sterile technique to safely open the abscess, drain the pus, and thoroughly clean the area. Timely treatment of abscesses can help avoid complications and unnecessary emergency visits.
Foreign Body Removal (Ear, Eye, & Skin)
When a foreign object becomes lodged in the ear, eye, or under the skin, it can cause pain, infection, and even permanent damage if not removed properly. Common examples include insects in the ear, splinters, debris in the eye, or small objects inserted by children. InMotion Health’s experienced providers can safely assess and remove foreign bodies in the comfort of your home using specialized tools and gentle techniques. After removal, we’ll examine the site to ensure nothing remains.
When Are Dermatology Treatments Necessary?
Skin conditions are not just cosmetic; they can significantly impact your comfort, sleep, daily activities, and even increase your risk of infection. If you or your child is dealing with persistent itching, swelling, burning, or visible changes in the skin, it’s important to seek medical care. Early intervention can relieve discomfort, prevent infections or worsening symptoms, minimize scarring, reduce the need for unnecessary medications, and stop the spread of contagious conditions like ringworm, lice or scabies.
