The body employs a multi-phase process to repair traumatic injuries:
Hemostasis: Immediate response to stop bleeding through vasoconstriction and clot formation. Inflammation: Inflammatory cells clear debris and pathogens from the injury site. Proliferation: Fibroblasts and endothelial cells proliferate to form new tissue and blood vessels. Remodeling: Collagen fibers are reorganized, and excess cells are removed to restore tissue architecture.
