Histological examination of inflamed tissues reveals several characteristic changes. These include:
Vascular changes: Increased blood flow and permeability of blood vessels, leading to tissue edema. Cellular infiltration: Migration of immune cells like neutrophils, macrophages, and lymphocytes to the site of inflammation. Tissue damage: Resulting from the release of enzymes and reactive oxygen species by inflammatory cells. Repair: Proliferation of fibroblasts and deposition of extracellular matrix, leading to scar formation.
