Emergency Care
Unless it is a life threatening event, do not go to the Emergency Room without calling your doctor first. Many problems at first glance are a little frightening, but many of these can be handled without an E.R. visit.
Immunizations
We provide information and immunizations for adults and children traveling out of the country. The initial consultation about travel abroad should occur at least six weeks before the patient’s departure to allow time for booster immunizations and assessment of any adverse reactions. Please let us know of any medications you may take regularly and any health conditions you may have so that they do not influence the outcome of your vaccination. You will be asked to provide a current immunization record prior to the initial consultation. The type of immunizations needed for your trip does depend on where you are going, your accommodations, the time of year, and duration of trip. Some different vaccines we may discuss with you are...

Lesions
In the early phase of the illness, patients typically experience fever, cough, photophobia, and coryza (significant nasal congestion) as well as mild-to-moderate gastrointestinal symptoms. Within a few days, Koplik spots (lesions looking like ulcers) involving the buccal mucosa appear as white papules on an erythematous base. At this point, the infection is highly contagious. Within a few days, the enanthem fades, temperature rises, and the beginning of a characteristic erythematous morbilliform exanthema evolves behind the ears and along the hairline margin. The rash progresses over the next 3 to 4 days from head to foot. Gradual clearing occurs in the same direction over a similar period of time, leaving a transient brawny desquamation. Complications during the course of illness can involve various organ systems. About 1 in 1000 patients develops encephalitis, often leading to residual brain damage. Other severe problems may include secondary bacterial infections or an autoimmune reaction. Case fatality rates are highest among children younger than age 5 years.
