Many courts will give you a few days to prove that you were in the hospital. However, if the court already issued a warrant your options are limited. First, you can wait to be arrested, not a good choice, or you can turn yourself into the jail, also not a great idea. You can surrender to the court, however, depending on the judge you might just get taken to jail. Lastly, you can hire an attorney to try and get the warrant recalled, while no guarantees, it is the safest move.
