Step 1 in the process of inflammation |
Blood flow to wound is increased, causing redness and heat. Histamine and heparin are released to control hemorrhaging |
|
|
Step 2 in the process of inflammation |
Fluid goes to the wound causing swelling |
|
|

Clot formation slows bleeding |
|
|

Large cells aid in the removal of debris |
|
|
