What causes inflammation and how it is caused

There are several causes of inflammation:

The first point is biological causes, the more common pathogens are bacteria, viruses, fungi, spirochetes, parasites, etc., and the disease inflammation caused by biological pathogens is also called infection.

Second, physical causes are high heat, cold, radiation and sun damage, as well as mechanical damage.

Third, chemical reasons, the more common ones are mustard gas, urea and pesticides, which can be.

Fourth, necrotic tissue, the human body has a certain amount of tissue necrosis every day. If a large amount of necrotic tissue occurs, it will lead to inflammation, such as severe ischemia and hypoxia of the tissue.

Introduction: Inflammation is the body's normal defense response, which is beneficial to the body in some cases, but the occurrence of most inflammation is harmful to the body and can destroy some tissue cells in the body. Once inflammation occurs in the body, it may show redness, swelling, burning, and strong pain in certain areas.

So the topic I want to share today is, the body often has various inflammations, what are the causes of inflammation?

1. How to prevent inflammation?

First of all, we should insist on exercising, more exercise can promote the body's blood circulation, promote the body's metabolism, and can alleviate the adverse effects caused by inflammation. Long-term exercise can not only make the body healthier, but also enhance physical fitness, improve the body's resistance and immunity, and also maintain the normal functioning of the body. Drink plenty of water, water is the source of life, able to prevent and ** various diseases.

Drinking plenty of hot water can increase the frequency of bowel movements, which can remove excess waste and garbage from the body. To make the body healthier, eat more green leafy vegetables and fruits with high vitamin C content to supplement the energy needed by the body, and vegetables and fruits contain a lot of antioxidant function, which can inhibit the occurrence of inflammatory cells. The diet should be more light, and eating more whole grains can also effectively prevent inflammation.

Because whole grains contain a lot of dietary fiber, it can reduce the concentration of cholesterol in the body and prevent the occurrence of diseases.

2. What are the causes of inflammation?

It may be that the body has a slow infection, which will produce some bacteria, fungi, microorganisms, etc., and the pathogen cannot be recognized by the immune system, which will cause inflammation. Only ** infection can alleviate the symptoms, it may be that people are in an environment that contains harmful substances such as smoke and heavy metals, and if they stay in this environment for a long time, it will cause inflammation throughout the body, thereby increasing the burden on the immune system, leading to immune system disorders, and even destruction. It may be that a long time of lack of sleep will lead to poor physical fitness, low resistance, and will cause germs and microorganisms to invade the human body, and will also lead to inflammation.

It may be that excessive mental stress, blood sugar disorders, and unhealthy diet can all lead to the occurrence of inflammation.

Chronic infections occur due to lack of sleep, dry environment, bacterial infections, and malnutrition, resulting in various inflammations in the body.

The constant occurrence of various inflammations in the body may be due to the body's low immunity. When the body's immunity is low, it leads to various pathogens and causes inflammation, such as fever, pain, redness and swelling at the infected site.

All factors that can cause tissue and cell damage can be the cause of inflammation, and these factors are called inflammatory factors, including biological factors, physical and chemical factors, abnormal immune responses, foreign bodies, tissue necrosis, etc. Damaging factors can directly or indirectly damage the body's cells and tissues, forcing the body to reduce or eliminate the effects of damaging factors through a series of vascular reactions, fluid exudation and cell exudation.

1. Biological factors.

A variety of pathogenic microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, rickettsia, mycoplasma, chlamydia, fungi and parasites, can multiply, spread, release toxins and metabolites, or induce immune responses, thereby damaging tissue cells and causing inflammation. Biologic factors are the most common inflammatory agents, and local tissue and systemic inflammatory responses caused by pathogens invading the body are often referred to as infections.

2. Physical and chemical factors.

Physical factors mainly include high temperature, low temperature, radiation, ultraviolet rays, electric shock, mechanical damage, etc. Chemical factors include exogenous chemicals and endogenous toxic substances, the former includes strong acids, strong alkalis, strong oxidants, turpentine and various toxic gases, etc., the latter is mainly metabolites (such as urea) accumulated in the body under pathological conditions and disintegration products after tissue necrosis, and other drugs and biological agents.

3. Abnormal immune response.

When the body's immune response is abnormal, it can cause inappropriate or excessive immune responses, causing tissue damage and triggering inflammatory reactions, such as various allergic reactions, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, contact dermatitis, etc.

4. Foreign bodies. External substances remaining in the body as foreign substances can lead to inflammation.

5. Tissue necrosis.

Tissue necrosis of any cause is a potential inflammatory agent. For example, hemorrhage, hyperemia, and inflammatory cell infiltration at the margins of fresh infarct foci due to ischemia are signs of inflammation.

What's the deal with inflammation in women? Female lower focus has a natural defense against pathogen invasion, and pathogen invasion has a natural defense function.

Most of them are caused by miscarriage, salpingitis, ovarian inflammation and so on caused by poor disinfection in hospitals.

Inflammation is mostly caused by viral or bacterial infection, and anti-inflammatory drugs need to be used to control the infection.

Inflammation is usually due to the accumulation of irregular life and long-term fatigue, so people should work and rest on time every day, standardize their life, drink more water every day, and pay more attention to rest at night!

There are many reasons for inflammation, such as often not paying attention to diet, or not paying attention to hydration during the change of seasons, which will lead to throat inflammation.

Bacteria, viruses, mycoplasma, chlamydia, these pathogenic microorganisms cause inflammation. There are also diseases of the autoimmune system that can also cause inflammation.

If you don't pay attention to your diet Drinking less water in winter can also cause inflammation in the throat.

Poor hygiene, catching a cold, or wearing poor-quality underwear can lead to inflammation.

If there is a bacterial infection in the body, there can be inflammation.

Inflammation is not new to us, but is our usual understanding correct? No, there is a certain difference between what we often talk about inflammation and what doctors talk about. Let's take a look at what doctors often talk about inflammation.

Inflammation: red, swollen, hot, painful. Redness and heat are caused by the dilation of local blood vessels and the acceleration of blood flow; Swelling is caused by the dilation of blood vessels, and some things in the blood vessels leak out through the blood vessels (many of these "seeping" things are used to fight the factors that damage our body).

Like phagocytic cells, they ooze out to "eat" the bacteria and necrotic tissue, which will be discussed later. ）；However, when these things compress our nerve endings, they cause pain. How can we avoid inflammation?

First, we need to figure out what causes us to have inflammation. To list the main reasons:

1. Microorganisms, such as various bacteria, viruses, mycoplasma, fungi and parasites, etc.;

2. All kinds of external injuries, such as those caused by dancing knives and guns, riding horses and shooting arrows.

3. All kinds of physical and chemical injuries, such as radiation (know why you are not allowed to get close when you do CT or X-ray in the hospital, it is because you are afraid of hurting you, not to prevent you from approaching close people.) To understand first! In short, in a word, anything that can cause damage to the body can cause inflammation.

However, the strength of the inflammatory response is not only related to the nature and degree of injury of the physical factors that injure the injury, but also to the differences in individual sensitivity to the factors of injury. &

Inflammation is a common pathological process in clinical practice, which can be born in tissues and organs in various parts of the body, such as folliculitis, tonsillitis, pneumonia, hepatitis, nephritis, etc. Acute inflammation usually has changes such as redness, swelling, heat, pain, and dysfunction, and is often accompanied by systemic reactions such as fever and leukocytosis. The occurrence of these changes is essentially an objective reflection of the body's overall struggle with inflammatory factors.

This paradoxical struggle runs through the inflammatory process. After the inflammatory factors act on the body, on the one hand, they cause damage to tissue cells, causing degeneration and necrosis of local tissue cells; On the other hand, it stimulates the body's disease resistance to enhance the body's ability to eliminate inflammatory factors and repair the damaged tissues, so that after the body is damaged, the body's internal environment and the internal environment and the external environment reach a new balance. ]
