RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus) is very common in young children and can cause more serious symptoms in the youngest age groups.

Children can catch RSV at any age, but the highest risk for significant symptoms is in:
• Infants and toddlers under 2 years old
• Babies under 6 months, who may have more trouble breathing or feeding
• Children with asthma, chronic lung conditions, or weakened immune systems

Common RSV Symptoms in Children:
• Persistent cough
• Wheezing or noisy breathing
• Fast or labored breathing
• Fever
• Runny nose or congestion
• Decreased appetite
• Irritability or trouble sleeping
• In infants: pauses in breathing, lethargy, or difficulty feeding

Because RSV spreads easily through coughs, sneezes, shared toys, and surfaces, outbreaks in daycares and schools are common.

If your child is struggling to breathe, has a worsening cough, signs of dehydration, or severe symptoms, AFC is here to help.

Walk in any day of the week for prompt evaluation and care.

Norovirus is making its rounds, and it’s one of the easiest stomach bugs to catch.

Just a tiny amount of the virus can spread through food, water, surfaces, or close contact, which is why outbreaks happen so quickly.

Most people recover at home, but dehydration can become serious fast, especially for kids, older adults, and anyone with weakened immunity.

If symptoms are severe, persistent, or you’re struggling to stay hydrated, AFC is here to help.

Walk in for prompt care. No appointment needed!

Stay safe, stay hydrated, and keep an eye out for early symptoms. Protect yourself and your family this season!

Cough that won’t quit? Trouble breathing? Chest discomfort you can’t explain? 😮‍💨

During sick season, these symptoms can be caused by anything from pneumonia to bronchitis, and guessing isn’t your best option. 🫁

🩻 Chest X-rays allow our providers to:
• Check for pneumonia and bronchitis
• Spot lung inflammation or fluid
• Rule out more serious conditions
• Guide the right treatment plan faster

When you’re feeling miserable, the last thing you need is an unnecessary ER visit or a long wait. AFC is open 7 days a week with on-site chest X-rays, so you can get answers quickly.

Walk in whenever you need us. No appointment needed!

Pushing through symptoms might seem easier than stopping for care, until it isn’t.

If NyQuil and Tylenol aren’t helping, it’s time to get clarity instead of coping.

Walk into AFC for personalized testing and treatment that helps you recover faster, not just mask symptoms.

You deserve to feel better, not just get by.
