What Are the Consequences of Compromised Tissue Integrity?
When tissue integrity is compromised, it can lead to a range of health issues:
Inflammation: Damaged tissues often trigger inflammatory responses, which can further harm the tissue if chronic. Infection: Breached barriers allow pathogens to invade, leading to infections. Functional Loss: Depending on the tissue affected, there can be loss of function, such as impaired muscle movement or skin protection.
