Before Sky inched away, he, as discretely as he could, sneaked a hand in another one of the man's pockets. Still nothing? Then Sky stepped away, showing that he was fine to stand by himself. "And the nearest clinic is that way--" Sky pointed in an arbitrary direction. "--and it's not too far, so I should be fine, but..." He put on his best pitiful look. "... I don't have any money to pay the doctor."
(Never mind that most healers were still offering free services, but if the man was a newcomer, hopefully he wouldn't know that.)
