Medical Conditions - Acute Inflammation

Acute inflammation is the sudden, innate, stereotyped, and host-protective response to an injury, infection, or other noxious stimuli. It is referred to as the first line of defense against infection or injury and is usually localized to the site of injury. It is characterized by the classic signs of inflammation, which include swelling, redness, increase in temperature, pain, and loss of function.
