Virus Testing in Wildwood, NJ
Many common viral illnesses can have similar symptoms, such as fever, coughing, nasal congestion, and sore throat. Oftentimes, a viral infection will cause nothing more than a few days of misery. However, if left undiagnosed and untreated, some viruses can progress and lead to serious complications, such as pneumonia. And although certain bacterial illnesses can cause virus-like symptoms, those infections may require antibiotic treatment to fully resolve.
At Cape Regional Urgent Care, we know that virus testing plays a key role in diagnosing infections accurately, guiding appropriate treatment, preventing the spread of illnesses, and providing essential data for public health efforts. We are pleased to offer virus testing at our walk-in clinic in Wildwood, New Jersey, which is equipped with a state-of-the-art clinical lab. By identifying the specific virus that is causing an infection, virus testing can help our providers deliver the best possible care, benefiting both the individual patient as well as broader public health initiatives.
