The general features of inflammation include increased blood flow, increased permeability of blood vessels, and increased migration of leukocytes into the affected tissue.

The goal of the inflammatory reaction is to eliminate the offending stimulus, restore tissue homeostasis, and facilitate healing.

Inflammation can be induced by various stimuli, including infection, tissue injury, and immune responses.

The cells involved in inflammation include neutrophils, macrophages, and lymphocytes.
The blood vessels involved in inflammation include arterioles, capillaries, and venules.
