Prairie Path spills and wrist injuries

The city notes that cyclists and walkers on the Illinois Prairie Path pass near the Spring Road and York and Vallette business districts. A flat trail still produces spills, and the most common landing is on an outstretched hand.
Swelling or bruising over the wrist or the base of the thumb
Pain that gets sharper when you grip handlebars or a cup
An elbow that will not fully straighten after the fall
A collarbone that hurts when you lift the arm
MedlinePlus says fractures often come from falls and sports injuries, and that a provider will likely order an X-ray to see whether a bone is broken. The main X-ray diagnostic imaging page explains what the test can show. Gravel ground into a scrape from the path also raises the tetanus question; see do I need a tetanus shot?

The U.S. Census Bureau counted 45,786 people in Elmhurst, IL in 2020, and about one in four is under 18. The FDA says younger patients are more sensitive to radiation, so our clinicians examine a child first and order an X-ray only when it will change care. A parent or guardian should come with anyone under 18.
We take most major plans, such as BCBS PPO, Cigna, Humana, UnitedHealthcare, Medicare, CountyCare, ACPN and State of Illinois Benefit Plans. Please call (630) 324-6825 to confirm imaging coverage. Self-pay visits start at $125, and an X-ray adds to the cost. Details are on our cost and insurance page.
Coming from Elmhurst, IL, which clinic do I reach first, and does it have X-ray?
Driving south on Route 83 and west on Ogden Ave, you reach the clinic inside Jewel-Osco at 4 E Ogden Ave first. It does not have X-ray. For a possible broken bone, continue south on Cass Ave to 29 N Cass Ave, Ste A, about 1 mile away in a straight line.
My Elmhurst, IL employer sent me in after a fall at work. What should I bring?
Bring a photo ID, your employer's name and contact person, any claim number, and the name of the workers' compensation carrier if you know it. Also bring a list of your medicines. A clinician can examine you, take an X-ray at the Cass Ave clinic if needed and explain the plan.
Does every work injury need an X-ray?
No. An X-ray shows bone, so it helps when a fracture or a metal fragment is possible. Many back strains and pulled muscles are judged by the exam alone, since X-rays give little detail about muscles and ligaments. Your clinician decides based on how you were hurt, where it hurts and what the exam shows.
Can an Elmhurst University student get an X-ray without a parent?
Yes, if the student is 18 or older. Adult students can check in on their own with a photo ID and an insurance card if they have one. Students under 18 need a parent or guardian to give consent. Self-pay visits start at $125, and the X-ray is an added charge.
Should I worry about radiation from a wrist X-ray?
Very little. MedlinePlus describes the exposure from an arm or leg X-ray as low-level, and the FDA says the benefit of a medically appropriate X-ray outweighs the small risk. Children and pregnant women are more sensitive, so tell us if you are or might be pregnant.
