Influenced by inflammation. Causes and treatment of inflammatory processes in gynecology. Etiology and pathogenetic mechanisms

With the appearance of trouble in the reproductive system, the entire body is involved in the pathological process.

Causes of inflammatory diseases in women

Inflammation is most often caused by an infection brought into the urogenital tract from the outside.

In this case, there may be several ways of penetration of pathogens.

1. Sexual way - during sexual contact from an infected person to a healthy one.
2. Ascending path - with poor personal hygiene, microbes penetrate deep into the vulva and anal area.
3. Mechanical way - in the presence of damage to the mucous membrane, the use of untreated tips for douching, inept setting of barrier contraceptives, etc.
4. Medical path - with insufficiently professional staging intrauterine devices, carrying out medical manipulations with a non-sterile instrument.
5. Endogenous way - in the presence of inflammatory foci with menstrual blood, during childbirth, etc.
6. Spontaneous way - with a decrease in protective barriers in the genital organs (acidic environment of the vagina, violation of the mucous plug in the cervical canal, etc.

Causative agents of inflammatory diseases in women

Pathological processes in the urogenital tract are divided into specific and nonspecific. They are determined by the type of infectious pathogens that caused inflammation.

Specific ones are due to the penetration of microflora, which reproduces mainly in the genital organs - gonococci, trichomonads, chlamydia, mycoplasmas, etc.

Nonspecific can affect many other body systems (oropharynx, digestive tract, respiratory tract, etc.). These are staphylococci, streptococci, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli, etc.

Since the latter often act as a united front, they are called mixed bacteria.

The reaction of the body in inflammatory diseases in women

Inflammation, which many people habitually call a disease, is actually a defensive reaction of the body. This natural mechanism is called immunity. It is the immune cells, attacking the appeared enemies, trying to destroy them by increasing the temperature at the site of introduction and thus prevent their spread further.

The outcome of defense depends on the activity of killer cells, their number, strength and diversity. If the uninvited guests are successfully neutralized, the disease will not develop. If there are more pathogenic pathogens than defenders, they will win, cause intoxication of the body and lead to illness.

This "warfare" between microbes and immune cells has been defined by the medical profession as immunological reactivity, which can be strong or weak. It is to increase the number of cells-defenders that the activities called strengthening the immune system are aimed.

Often, when a pathological focus appears in the genital organs, the nervous, vascular, endocrine systems suffer, which determines the clinical picture of the disease.

Localization of inflammatory diseases in women

Gynecologists make a diagnosis in accordance with the place where the inflammation occurred. In fact, such a division for a woman practically does not matter, since several organs are involved in the pathological process at once.

Nevertheless, it is useful to know the decoding of the diagnosis.

Features of inflammatory diseases in women

Vulvitis occurs due to trauma or insufficient hygiene of the perineum. In girls, vulvitis is associated with a weakness of specific immunity, the presence of other inflammatory foci and anatomical features of the structure of the external genital organs (thin skin, weak epithelial cover, numerous glands, etc.)

Vulvovaginitis more often develops in older women, which is due to endocrine diseases, nutritional errors, hormonal imbalance.

Middle-aged women rarely suffer from inflammation of the external genitalia due to the characteristics of epithelial tissues, which eventually become resistant to infections.

Colpitis belongs to the most common gynecological pathologies. The disease is usually associated with a violation of the barrier function of the vagina, a decrease in its ability to self-cleanse, which allows microbes to freely penetrate deep into the genital organs.

cervicitis is a consequence of inflammation of the vaginal mucosa, if there are microdamages in the mucous membrane of the canal and cervix. Cervicitis can lead to cervical erosion (epithelial ulceration). With the formation of erosion, the site of damage is covered with mucus with an alkaline reaction. And the alkaline environment, unlike the acidic one, serves as an excellent incubator for the reproduction of pathogenic microflora, which will later cause inflammation of the mat!

endometritis as an independent disease can occur after childbirth. However, most often the infection is introduced during the setting of uterine spirals, operations and other medical (surgical and diagnostic) procedures. Among the causes of endometritis and sexual relations during menstruation.

Salpingitis begins after endometritis: the infection from the uterus spreads to the fallopian tubes. Salpingitis is dangerous due to the formation of adhesions in the tubes that prevent the passage of the egg into the uterine cavity. This is one of the most common causes female infertility.

Oophoritis rarely primary, since the ovaries are quite reliably protected from microbes by a dense membrane. But with the invasion of an abundance of pathogenic flora from fallopian tubes the ovaries also become inflamed, causing adnexitis.

Signs and symptoms of inflammatory diseases in women

How do inflammatory processes in the urogenital tract of a woman make themselves felt? Most often, itching, burning, discharge and pain in the lower abdomen appear, sometimes menstrual function and libido (sexual desire) are disturbed.

Beli- the release of a viscous transparent secret of the gonads in moderation is the norm for the female body. However, sometimes whites differ in a yellow-greenish tint, which indicates the presence of pus in the focus of inflammation, and have an unpleasant odor.

The smell may be diagnostic. So, the smell of fish is given by Trichomonas and gardnerella. A sour smell with curdled discharge occurs with candidiasis (thrush of fungal etiology). A sharp unpleasant odor can signal vaginal dysbacteriosis.

Allocations in women may not have a pathological origin. So, an increase in secretion often occurs with nervous tension - stress, for example. Such whites stop by themselves after the disappearance of the cause. In girls of puberty, whites signal hormonal changes.

Each woman usually determines for herself that whites have deviations from the norm. This is an occasion for an immediate appeal to a gynecologist, since sometimes they talk not about an inflammatory, but an oncological process.

Pain is a common symptom of distress. Dull and aching, sharp and pulling, temporary and permanent, aggravated by colds and stress, physical fatigue and sexual intercourse, local and spilled, premenstrual and accompanied by headache along with insomnia - all of them sharply reduce life comfort, disrupt work capacity and sometimes bring a woman down to depression.

Itching and burning occur exclusively with pathology in the reproductive system, normally this does not happen.

In most cases, the cause lies in infection, less often - in violation of hygiene rules, even less often - in mechanical damage (for example, when rubbing with underwear). Sometimes this result is given by the use of certain drugs and rarely by the use of inappropriate intimate hygiene products.

Often itching and burning accompanies disturbances in other body systems. They appear with diabetes mellitus, hepatitis, abnormalities in the functioning of the endocrine glands, a sharp change in hormonal levels (for example, with menopause), mental illness, etc.

specific infection

The same and even more acute manifestations bring with them specific inflammatory diseases of the female genital organs. Their appearance is associated with infections that are predominantly sexually transmitted, but still this variant of infection is far from the only one. These include chlamydia, ureaplasmosis, gardnerellosis, genital herpes, trichomoniasis, mycoplasmosis, cytomegalovirus, HIV, etc., as well as venereal gonorrhea and syphilis.

Inflammations caused by one pathogen are called monoinfections, a combination of microorganisms provokes mixed infections.

Mixed infections occur due to the latent course of many diseases, a longer incubation period that some strains of microbes acquire, due to self-treatment (especially antibiotics) at the first sign of trouble.

Mixed infections are difficult to diagnose, take longer to heal, and produce more complications.

Find to defuse

Patient Question

Doctor's answer

It is necessary because it helps to identify hidden pathogens and disarm (treat) them before pregnancy.

PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is a very accurate diagnostic method in which the DNA of pathogenic microflora is scanned, which allows you to accurately determine the type of pathogenic microorganism.

PCR diagnostics has proven itself well, therefore it deserves the respect of gynecologists, who often have to deal with disguised sexually transmitted diseases (asymptomatic chlamydia, ureaplasmosis, genital herpes, etc.).

The reliability of the method approaches 100% accuracy.

PCR diagnostics is also used in pulmonology (for lung diseases) to determine viral and bacterial pathogens of pneumonia, and to detect tuberculosis. In hematology, PCR helps to determine the presence of cytomegaloviruses and oncoviruses. And infectious disease doctors use the express PCR method in their practice to diagnose diphtheria, viral hepatitis B, C and G, salmonellosis.

For diagnostics PCR method biological material is taken - blood, saliva, urine, a piece of human tissue.

Prevention of vaginal infections

To avoid vaginal infections, and if they occur, reduce the time of treatment, girls and women should follow certain rules.

1. You should try not to constantly wear tight synthetic tight-fitting panties. Such underwear does not provide air circulation in the genital area, does not absorb moisture. Since infectious agents, and especially fungal flora, multiply most actively in a humid environment, with a greenhouse effect, preference should be given to breathable fabrics. Panties made of cotton, or at least with a cotton insert, will prevent the formation of an alkaline environment on the vaginal mucosa. The unpleasant putrid smell of natural secretions, which even healthy women often complain about, indicates the formation of an alkaline environment favorable for a fungal infection.
2. You should not walk for a long time in a wet swimsuit. In addition to creating greenhouse conditions for microbes, as discussed above, there is another risk. You can chill the pelvic organs. Your immune system will drop and bacteria will multiply to cause inflammation.
3. After water procedures, it is necessary to carefully wipe the perineum with a dry towel, and be sure to move it from front to back in order to avoid the introduction of intestinal bacteria from the anal area into the genitals.
4. It is very important to use your own toiletries.
5. It is necessary to pay attention to the choice of intimate hygiene products: avoid flavored tampons, colored toilet paper, soaps, gels and sprays with fragrances and other substances that can irritate the mucous membranes.
6. To avoid discomfort during menstruation, it is better to use cotton tampons instead of synthetic ones. Super absorbent tampons and those that stay in the vagina for more than 12 hours interfere with drainage and promote the growth of fungal microorganisms.
7. Those women who are accustomed to using tampons during menstruation should use them only during the day. At night, preference should be given to pads.
8. If you experience any discomfort in the urogenital tract, you should immediately consult a doctor. If it is an infection, you need to start treating it immediately in order to avoid big trouble.
9. If an infectious agent is detected during the examination, the sexual partner will also have to be treated. Even if he was not the cause of the disease, the pathogenic microbial flora migrated to him.
10. With candidiasis, it is useful to refuse an excess of sweets. Refined sugar, according to many doctors, is able to maintain a chronic fungal infection.
11. For the same reason, it is necessary to limit the consumption of bread, mushrooms, alcoholic beverages, canned foods and spicy foods.
12. The menu should include more dairy products, fish, potatoes, citrus fruits and legumes. Eat at least 2 glasses of fermented milk products (especially enriched with bifidobacteria) a day. This contributes to the prevention of dysbacteriosis in the external genitalia.

Conservative therapy for inflammation of the appendages

Acute inflammation of the appendages and exacerbation of the chronic process requires hospitalization, especially if the relapse is caused by a sexual infection.

With a sharp pain, the patient is prescribed bed rest with Cold procedures (ice pack) to dampen the inflammatory process.

On the first day, while tests have not yet been carried out and the type of pathogen is unknown, a woman is prescribed broad-spectrum antibiotics, since it is urgent to localize the inflammation.

Commonly used are oxacillin sodium, ampiox, or ampicillin. Then drugs are connected, taking into account the type of microbes, purposefully developed against this type of microorganisms.

Effective cephalosporins - cephaloridine, cephalexin, cefazolin, as well as antibiotics of the aminoglycoside group - sulfates of neomycin, gentamicin, kanamycin. Levomycetin is also used.

Antibiotic therapy should not be stopped even after the acute symptoms of inflammation have subsided. The course is usually 10-14 days, and with chlamydial infection - up to 3 weeks.

With obvious resistance of pathogens to antibiotics, nitrofurans are added to the treatment regimen. Although this group of antimicrobial drugs is inferior in clinical effectiveness to most antibiotics, at high concentrations they have a fairly wide spectrum of action and suppress both anaerobic flora and bacteria, and in addition, fungi that cause catdidiasis. Furazolidone and nifuratel are actively fighting Trichomonas and Giardia.

In parallel with antibacterial drugs, drugs are prescribed that prevent the development of fungal infections, since against the background of antibiotic therapy there is a threat of candidiasis and dysbacteriosis. Usually it is nystatin and levorin.

If inflammatory processes in the ovaries and tubes give high temperature, fever, chills, the doctor prescribes drug detoxification with rheopolyglucin, gemodez, glucose solution with vitamins administered intravenously.

With a strong pain syndrome, analgesic drugs are prescribed (analgin, butadione, amidopyrine, etc.), with drug allergies, desensitizing agents (diphenhydramine, suprastin, tavegil). If the adhesive process is pronounced, enzymes are used - ronidase, lidase, as well as the vitreous body, aloe that stimulate the protective reactions of the body.

For the resorption of adhesions, physiotherapeutic procedures are widely used: pulsed currents, magnetic field, UHF. During the recovery period, chloride, sodium, sulfide sitz baths benefit.

Therapeutic mud, ozocerite (natural mineral substance of the oil group), paraffin are used for local effects in the form of applications.

To restore functional disorders, acupuncture is often prescribed.

With proper treatment in a hospital, as well as patient and careful implementation of doctor's prescriptions during the home rehabilitation and recovery period, it is possible to cope with inflammation in the reproductive female organs. But if persistent infertility has formed during the chronicization of the process, the prognosis is not so favorable. In some cases, it is not possible to get rid of adhesions in the abdominal cavity.

Medical preventive measures

In order to reduce the risk of developing gynecological diseases, it is necessary:

• visit a gynecologist 2 times a year;
• regularly do histological analysis in order to detect atypical cells;
• go to the same doctor who will be able to monitor the state of health in dynamics;
• if possible, choose the most qualified doctor;
• for any discomfort in the genital area, immediately seek medical advice;
• carefully and in a timely manner to implement the assigned recommendations.

Are vaginal infections a sexually transmitted disease?

Patient Question

Is a vaginal infection a sexually transmitted disease and can a woman infect her partner with it?

Doctor's answer

Among the three most common vaginal infections (bacterial vulvovaginitis, trichomoniasis and thrush), only trichomoniasis has recently been classified as a venereal disease, and even then conditionally.

However, doctors believe that the development of bacterial vulvovaginitis is almost always closely related to sex, since most women acquire pathogenic microflora through contact with a sexual partner.

How are these states different? The fact that the bacteria that cause inflammation of the lower urogenital tract in women are most often harmless to men and do not lead to the development of an inflammatory process in their urinary organs.

But the causative agents of venereal diseases affect both partners equally.

Overdiagnosis

Patient Question

Gynecologists working in medical centers are convinced that every woman of the childbearing period should be examined every six months for the presence of genital infections. Many paid analyzes and diagnostic methods are prescribed. Is it always justified?

Doctor's answer

Detection of sexually transmitted infections is carried out only for certain indications. If a woman lives in marriage and there are no symptoms of an inflammatory process in the urogenital tract, the reproductive function is not impaired, there is no point in additional examinations to detect infections.

Some microorganisms are saprophytes, that is, they live in the body almost constantly. Any analysis will detect their presence, but such flora should be dealt with only if it is activated, which threatens with disease.

Sometimes, to make an accurate diagnosis, you really need to undergo a series of examinations. For example, with chlamydia, before making a diagnosis, it is necessary to confirm the presence of the disease by two or three diagnostic methods.

If information about the presence of an infectious agent is obtained by one method, this does not mean that the woman has developed chlamydia. Nevertheless, one insufficiently reliable study often makes a diagnosis and prescribes the strongest doses of antibiotics. And this leads to genital candida and other undesirable consequences.

The trend towards unreasonable examinations, towards overdiagnosis of infections, unfortunately, exists in the medical world. Overdiagnosis, i.e. excessive appointment of additional, sometimes completely unnecessary tests and examinations, often leads to an erroneous medical conclusion.

Usually, indications for an infectious examination are symptoms of an inflammatory process in the urogenital tract, infertility, or recurrent miscarriage.

Gynecological fees

Patient Question

Will phytotherapy help? Tell me, what herbal remedy can be bought at the pharmacy for inflammation of the vagina?

Doctor's answer

Pharmacies sell special gynecological collections of medicinal herbs that have antiseptic properties, selected according to their composition in certain proportions. There, yarrow, chamomile, St. John's wort, sage, and sometimes nettle are added. You can buy such fees and, according to the prescription indicated on the package, use them to douche the vagina. But, herbal medicine can not always remove the inflammatory process.

In this case, you need to find out what is causing the inflammation. If this is a banal colpitis and there are no pathogenic (infectious) microorganisms, then it makes sense to use decoctions of herbs. Although it is necessary to warn: douching should not be carried away, because in this case, the normal flora of the vagina is washed out.

Among gynecological diseases inflammatory diseases of the genital organs in women are the most common pathologies. Approximately 60% of women seek advice from gynecologists precisely because of the development of inflammation.

In addition, gynecologists argue that in fact the number of cases may be even greater, since inflammation sometimes has an erased form. Therefore, the woman does not go to the doctor. It is generally accepted that the increase in inflammation of the genital organs in women is associated primarily with a decrease, deterioration of the environmental situation, and changes in the sexual behavior of young people.

Causes of inflammatory diseases of the female genital organs

Almost always, the inflammatory process in the genital organs occurs under the influence of a number of different factors - thermal , chemical , mechanical . But the main factor directly affecting the development of inflammation is the influence of infections. Depending on which pathogen provokes the development of inflammatory diseases of the female genital organs, they are usually divided into non-specific and specific . The latter include , .

Nonspecific inflammatory diseases provoke a variety of pathogens: chlamydia , candida mushrooms , ureaplasma , mycoplasma , trichomonas , coli , Klebsiella , corynebacteria (gardnerella ) and etc.

Opportunistic pathogens also play a role in the occurrence of such diseases. Most often, the transmission of pathogenic pathogens occurs during sexual contact, more rarely there is a household route of transmission. In order for inflammation of the female genital organs to be provoked by opportunistic microorganisms, certain conditions must be met. In particular, the vaginal microflora, which creates an acidic environment, prevents the entry and further activation of the infection of opportunistic microorganisms.

In addition, an obstacle to the spread of infection is the process of rejection of the endometrial layer during menstruation. Along with this layer, microorganisms are also rejected. And due to the plastic properties of the pelvic peritoneum, inflammation in a woman affects only the pelvic area.

A factor that protects against the risk of re-development of inflammation of the genital organs is also the use of certain oral contraceptives.

Distinguish active and passive spread of infection to the upper genital tract from the lower. The lymphogenous or hematogenous route is considered passive, as well as spread to the tubes and uterus, into the abdominal cavity through the cervical canal. Active spread of infection occurs with Trichomonas and spermatozoa.

Factors that contribute to the spread of infection

In the genital tract of a woman, the infection spreads more actively under the influence of certain factors.

The intensive process is facilitated by various manipulations carried out intrauterine:, scraping etc. With such procedures, an infection can get into the uterine cavity either from the vagina or from the external environment. Through the fallopian tubes, it gradually spreads to the fallopian tubes. An ascending infection very often manifests itself immediately after menstruation, the birth of a child, and surgical interventions that were performed on the organs of the small pelvis and abdominal cavity.

Also, its active spread is facilitated by the presence in the body of a woman of foci of chronic infection, endocrine disorders and metabolic processes in the body, poor nutrition, frequent emotional overload, hypothermia, etc.

Types of inflammatory diseases of the female genital organs

Depending on which area of ​​the genital organs of a woman is affected by a nonspecific infection, a disease of the genital organs is determined. Subject to the development of inflammation of the vaginal mucosa, it manifests itself. This inflammation is diffuse and focal, it can spread to the vulva and part of the cervix.

If inflammation has affected the external genital organs, then we are talking about vulvitis . This ailment can develop in a woman as a consequence of a mucosal injury due to scratching, abrasions, etc. An infection of the injured surface occurs. Sometimes diagnosed secondary vulvitis , which is a consequence of inflammation of the internal genital organs.

Inflammation of the cervix is ​​called, and the large gland of the vestibule of the vagina is called.

If the inflammation affects the inner membrane of the cervical canal, then the patient is diagnosed endocervicitis . - an inflammatory process in the inner lining of the uterus. The occurrence of acute endometritis is mainly observed after a difficult birth, abortion, curettage.

With inflammation of the uterine corpse, the patient develops salpingitis . The inflammatory process that affects the ovaries provokes the development oophoritis . Inflammation of the walls of the uterus is called myometritis , and the pelvic peritoneum - pelvioperitonitis .

Local therapy is carried out in the form of douching with acidic solutions in order to restore the normal microflora of the vagina. Also used for treatment Trichomonas , representatives , candles .

Symptoms of inflammatory diseases of the female genital organs

Female inflammatory diseases are characterized by the absence of a clear clinical picture, since they are characterized by a chronic course and periodic exacerbations.

For inflammation of the female genital organs, different symptoms are characteristic, both local and general. In the inflammatory process of the female genital organs, the characteristic symptoms are edema , redness and itching mucous membrane of the vagina and vulva, pain during sexual intercourse, periodic pain in the lower back, changes in the nature of vaginal discharge. Possible disruptions in the menstrual cycle, difficulty urinating.

In the acute course of an inflammatory disease, a pronounced general reaction of the body is observed: body temperature rises, chills are observed. When analyzing blood, a change in the blood picture is determined. A woman notes an intense discharge of leucorrhoea, pain in the lower abdomen. If the process proceeds in a chronic form over a long period, the lesions of the reproductive system become less pronounced, but there are signs of changes in other systems and organs.

Consequences of inflammatory diseases of the female genital organs

In the process of progression of such diseases, a woman experiences changes in the state of the reproductive system, as well as a general deterioration in the patient's health. There is often a violation in metabolic processes, changes in the vegetative-vascular nature, shifts in the work of the endocrine system.

In addition, inflammatory diseases of the female genital organs provoke the formation of anatomical changes. A woman who has had inflammation of the genital organs may develop adhesions either develop obstruction of the fallopian tubes . The blood flow in the tissues of the genital organs noticeably worsens, the egg also matures with disturbances. Inflammatory diseases in gynecology sometimes lead to the formation of hemodynamic and trophic changes in the organs and tissues of the small pelvis. The process may be disrupted in a woman ovulation , as well as transportation of the egg, subject to a violation of the patency of the tubes.

Due to the transferred inflammation of the genital organs, a woman also manifests menstrual dysfunction, may develop ectopic pregnancy. Sometimes changes in the uterus and appendages are formed. Such serious pathologies in some cases provoke infertility. Therefore, inflammatory diseases in gynecology occupy the main place in the list of causes of infertility.

Most often, such an inflammatory process causes violations of sexual, as well as menstrual and generative function in a woman.

If the diagnosis is not established correctly and in a timely manner, the process may worsen and, as a result, respond poorly to treatment. That is why a woman must be aware that the earliest possible diagnosis and A complex approach to treatment are a very important measure to prevent infertility in the future.

antibiotics for inflammation

One of the most important inventions of medicine - antibiotics, are designed specifically to combat any kind of inflammation. Antibiotics have been mass-produced since 1910, but to this day, they are sometimes the only way to save a person. Not yet invented effective medicine in fighting inflammation than antibiotics.

Over the years, both official and traditional medicine have accumulated many recipes and methods in the fight against inflammation. It has long been believed that there is nothing worse than inflammation, especially if it is chronic. Any damage or injury is necessarily accompanied by inflammation. We encounter many quite often - these are purulent wounds, tumors, fever. The treatment of inflammation is a long and complex process, which has always been very acute.

Of course, many different antibiotics have been invented recently, but do not forget that they adversely affect internal organs, and often, curing one organ of inflammation, another organ is subjected to a strong negative effect.

Traditional medicine will help in the treatment of inflammation

Even very skeptical experts are increasingly returning to effective anti-inflammatory recipes that exist in traditional medicine. These recipes are varied and especially effective in the treatment of inflammation in the acute stage. The treatment process is more difficult when we are dealing with chronic inflammation.

Source: inside you - signs of a chronic inflammatory process in the body

The cause of many diseases, including heart disease, obesity, etc. is chronic inflammation in the body. Chronic inflammation is an enemy that knows how to disguise itself well, because it is very difficult to independently detect signs of an inflammatory process in the body. However, it is possible to identify this initiator of disease processes if you look closely at the signs of the inflammatory process and consult a doctor in time to undergo the necessary tests. Estet-portal.com will help you bring the inflammatory process to clean water.

What is inflammation, what are the signs of the inflammatory process in the body?

Inflammation is the body's response to injury. As a rule, we recognize inflammation in the body by typical signs: redness, fever and swelling of the damaged area, as well as restriction of mobility, for example, in the case of a sprained ankle or bruised finger. Chronic inflammation accompanies all diseases ending in "it" - arthritis, hepatitis, bursitis, etc. The inflammatory process can proceed “quietly” inside the body, and a person may not be aware of its presence.

Chronic infections are a very big burden on the immune system and liver, so you need to take care of strengthening the immune system.

If you have found the above signs in yourself, you need to consult a doctor who, based on the tests, will prescribe the necessary treatment and nutrition for inflammation.

Source: such an inflammatory process, what are its symptoms and treatment

What is inflammation

Many bacterial, fungal or viral infections, abscesses, wounds of various tissues, and other violations of the integrity of the body are accompanied by inflammation, this phenomenon helps to recover faster, but often causes a lot of harm. In order to help the body in time, you need to know what an inflammatory reaction is, how many types it has, the stages of this process, its symptoms and methods of treatment.

Inflammation is an aggressive defensive reaction of the body to a violation of the integrity of any tissue caused by a mechanical, chemical or biological agent. Different stages of the process are aimed at destroying the waste products of dead cells and antigens (viruses, bacteria) that are toxic to the body, and sometimes at utilizing the latter.

Stages of inflammation

There are 3 main stages of inflammation:

• alteration - damage to the integrity of tissues by any agent;
• exudation - the influx of fluid with histamine and immune cells to the focus of inflammation;
• proliferation - healing of tissues, restoration of their integrity.

At each stage, various processes occur that contribute to the protection of the body, described below. Symptoms of inflammation may appear on different stages but treatment is important on each of them. It depends on the stage of the inflammatory process and the type of antigen.

How is inflammation

To understand the inflammatory response, we can consider a simple situation. Many in adolescence crushed acne, leaving small abscesses on the skin. The latter became convex, within 1-2 days there was redness around them. It was this redness that testified to the initial stage of inflammation.

Contribute to the development of the inflammatory reaction of basophils - blood cells containing histamine - a substance that causes vasodilation, a rush of blood to the site of its release and an increase in temperature. The main role of histamine molecules is to attract other immune cells to the site of damage, so that bacteria or viruses do not penetrate through the abscesses into the epithelium and blood.

The scheme of inflammation is as follows:

1. At the site of violation of the integrity of the tissue, basophils are destroyed, releasing histamine.
2. Histamine causes a rush of blood and "attracts" immune cells (macrophages, neutrophils, and others) to the right place.
3. In the center of inflammation, a slight swelling occurs and the temperature rises.
4. Immune blood cells actively kill antigens (bacteria, viruses) that enter through abscesses until the latter are covered with traumatic tissue.
5. After restoring the integrity of the tissue, eosinophils secrete an enzyme - histaminase, which breaks down histamine, and inflammation ends.

Such a simple but powerful scheme helps to provide the body with protection against antigens at every stage of inflammation.

Damage from inflammation

Inflammation is also harmful. It is difficult to say exactly how long the stages of inflammation will last, often they take longer than necessary, for example, due to a lack of histaminase. Also, the accompanying phenomena have a negative effect - fever and puffiness. When it comes to a small abscess from a pimple, there is nothing to worry about, but an inflammatory reaction can also occur on a large scale, for example, with tonsillitis, diseases of internal organs, arthritis, then the symptoms will be much more difficult for a person to endure.

How long does inflammation last

An important question is how long the inflammatory process lasts, because when it occurs inside the body it must be treated, otherwise the person will weaken. The duration of inflammation depends on the location, extent, and pathogens that immune cells fight. If we are talking about acne abscesses, then the inflammation lasts no longer than 1-3 days, but in the case of a sore throat, it can drag on for weeks, and sometimes it does not end at all without the help of medications.

Signs of inflammation

Today, medicine helps to effectively treat inflammatory processes, so when you see the signs of inflammation and take the right drugs, you can quickly deal with uninvited guests and make it easier to endure the process of this struggle.

The main symptoms of inflammation are:

• redness of the area of ​​inflammation;
• local edema;
• soreness when touched;
• local or general increase in temperature;
• dysfunction (if we are talking about organs).

There are other signs of inflammation: allergic rashes, nausea, fever, but they are individual and rarely appear.

Types of inflammation

Inflammation is a broad concept, therefore, in order to be able to select the appropriate treatment, doctors have created a classification of this phenomenon. Exist different types inflammation, group them depending on:

Forms of inflammation

There are three forms of the inflammatory process:

Acute inflammation is a process whose duration does not exceed several hours or days. A vivid example of it is acne abscesses, scratches on the skin, wounds in the mouth and other external injuries caused by a mechanical agent, many of which do not need to be treated (with the exception of, for example, appendicitis).

Subacute inflammation is a pathological phenomenon, the treatment of which takes from 4-5 days to several weeks or months (how long it lasts depends on the location of the focus and the type of antigen). Many in childhood suffered a sore throat, bronchitis, otitis and similar diseases, the inflammatory process in all these cases proceeded in a subacute form.

Chronic inflammation is less common, it is a serious disorder that constantly exhausts the body's immune system. Most often it appears in childhood, and treatment almost does not give results. Diseases such as chronic tonsillitis, autoimmune disorders, cirrhosis and others occur in this form.

Sources of inflammation

The second classification is made based on the source of the inflammatory response. There are 3 main types of inflammatory agents:

Infectious agents include bacteria, fungi, viruses, protozoa and helminths that attack the external and internal organs of a person with mechanical, chemical, and other types of damage to the integrity of tissues.

An autoimmune agent is the most unpleasant source of inflammation, because it can be treated forever, but there will be no result, because it will always be in the body. The classic example is lupus. This is a disease in which the inflammatory process occurs in the epithelium due to the fact that the immune system "does not recognize" the cells of the body and tries to destroy them.

Treatment of inflammation

To help the body cope with antigens faster and stop inflammation, you can carry out drug treatment. In the pharmacy there are different classes of drugs of different directions:

• immune suppressors for the treatment of autoimmune disorders;
• antipyretics based on ibuprofen or aspirin;
• antibiotics and antiviral drugs;
• immunostimulants.

The former help to treat the manifestations of autoimmune diseases, reduce the aggressiveness of the immune system to the cells of the body, but are not able to completely eliminate the cause of chronic inflammation.

The latter are used to treat the phenomena accompanying inflammation - temperature, body aches, weakness. When they are taken, the body spends less energy on eliminating these symptoms and quickly copes with the cause of the inflammatory process.

The third group of drugs is heavy artillery, which can be used only if the body itself cannot cope with antigens. Treating a person with antibiotics or antiviral drugs is a responsible task that only a doctor can handle, so do not take them yourself.

Immunostimulants are used when the antigen has already begun to penetrate the body, but the immune system does not respond to it, these drugs are designed not so much to treat as to induce inflammation.

The inflammatory process exhausts the body, it is often difficult to predict how long it will last, but you can help the body cope with it. It is necessary to treat inflammation, taking into account the stage, its source and type of antigen, which are important to understand, but do not prescribe drugs for yourself, but consult a doctor.

Source: the process will recede if you eat it!

The main cause of chronic disease for many people is a systemic inflammatory process that was not treated in time or was not even identified in the initial stages and as a result leads to a full-blown progressive chronic disease. High blood pressure, bacterial and viral infections, arthritis, acid reflux, premature aging, heart disease, cancer and many other common diseases are often associated with inflammation, which must be addressed at the time of occurrence in order to avoid such terrible diseases!

And the best way to do this is to resort to implementing complex lifestyle and dietary changes instead of using drugs that can lead to unforeseen harmful effects. side effects! If your health is being affected by chronic inflammation, the following foods and herbs can help reduce and even eliminate it naturally without the need for medication:

1) Dairy products and drinks. Eat more food and drink more drinks rich in probiotic bacteria - i.e. bacteria that promote a healthy, disease-fighting ecosystem within gastrointestinal tract is one of the most effective ways to combat natural inflammation. Because Probiotics are vital to the body by effectively breaking down food and making it more bioavailable, they can also help alleviate digestive issues caused by modern foods, which are largely responsible for creating inflammation in the body.

Products include traditional fermented vegetables - kimchi (spicy pickled vegetables, a Korean dish) and sauerkraut, which are among the most popular - traditional miso soup, kefir or yogurt, tempeh (the most easily digestible soy product with a nutty flavor and mild texture), and homemade pickles. Popular probiotic drinks include kombucha tea, unpasteurized apple cider vinegar (ACV), and kefir.

2) Omega-3 fatty acids. They act as a natural "lubricant" in the body and are powerful anti-inflammatory agents. You can find omega-3 fatty acids in wild oily fish, hemp and chia seeds, walnuts, domestic eggs and meat. Studies have shown that omega-3 fatty acids reduce oxidative stress in the body and reduce inflammation in the brain, cardiovascular system, and elsewhere, which reduces the risk of developing other serious diseases.

High quality fish oil, hemp oil, chia oil, spirulina, pumpkin seed oil, and walnut oil are excellent sources of omega-3s. Each of these products will help offset the overload of omega-6 fatty acids that enter our body through modern foods, as well as avoid the inflammatory process.

3) Sour cherry. One of the most powerful anti-inflammatory foods! It provides serious relief for those people who suffer from arthritis, gout, joint pain and other inflammatory conditions. Sour cherries are so powerful that Oregon Health and Science University researchers recently claimed they have "the highest anti-inflammatory content of any food."

Since they are not widely available fresh - virtually all supermarket cherries are sweet, not sour - the best way to get sour cherries is to buy them in powder, capsule, or juice form. Drinking just the juice of sour cherries every day can significantly improve inflammation markers within a few weeks.

4) Saturated fats. This recommendation may come as a surprise to some readers, but the truth is that the inhabitants of the Earth consume too much omega-6 fatty acids, which are one of the main causes of systemic inflammation. And who can blame them for this, given the fact that the medical system is actually promoting the consumption of omega-6 rich vegetable oils and other inflammation-inducing foods in the body, claiming to be a healthy diet?

Low fat is another cause of inflammation and chronic disease because The body needs a regular intake of healthy fats to keep the circulatory system in good health and maintain healthy blood flow. Consuming healthier saturated fats in the form of coconut oil, homemade meats and butter, lard can not only help reduce inflammation, but also strengthen your bones, improve lung and brain function, and modulate nervous system function.

5) The fruits of the Mexican cactus. Uniquely rich in the powerful bioflavonoid nutrient known as betalain, Mexican cactus fruit is another must-have anti-inflammatory food that is tasty and easy to incorporate into your diet. A member of the quercetin family, betalain helps neutralize free radicals responsible for triggering inflammation and also provides long-term protection against oxidative damage.

A 2012 study published in the journal Alcohol found that Mexican cactus fruit extract helped protect rat cells from inflammatory damage. And an earlier study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine found that the Mexican cactus fruit has a similar anti-inflammatory effect in humans.

Now you, dear reader of our site, know how to treat inflammation, how to neutralize it in the early stages or avoid it in principle.

Today I would like to publish an article that is devoted to the problem of the inflammatory process in the body. This article is replete with special medical terms, therefore, although it considers the causes and symptoms of inflammation, it will be of interest to few. I publish it primarily for myself. So to speak, note. Well, maybe some of you will find it useful.

The mechanism of development of the inflammatory process

Many external signs of inflammation are explained just by the development of arterial hyperemia. As the inflammatory process increases, arterial hyperemia is gradually replaced by venous hyperemia.

Venous hyperemia is determined by further vasodilation, slowing down of blood flow, the phenomenon of marginal standing of leukocytes and their moderate emigration. A rather sharp increase in filtration processes, a violation of the rheological properties of the blood of the body.

Factors that influence the transition of arterial to venous hyperemia can be divided into two main groups: extravascular and intravascular.

Intravascular factors include - a strong thickening of the blood as a result of the transfer of a certain amount of plasma from the blood to the inflamed (damaged) tissue.

Parietal standing of leukocytes, swelling of the endothelium in an acidic environment, the formation of microthrombi - as a result of platelet aggregation and increased blood clotting.

Excessive accumulation in the focus of the inflammatory process of inflammatory mediators with a vasodilating effect along with hydrogen ions, exudate compression of the walls of veins and lymphatic vessels, these are extravascular factors.

Venous hyperemia initially leads to the development of prestasis - a jerky, pendulum-like movement of blood. During systole, blood moves from the artery to the veins, during diastole - in the opposite direction, since the blood encounters an obstacle to outflow through the vein in the form of increased blood pressure in them. And finally, the flow of blood due to blockage of blood vessels by cell aggregates or microthrombi completely stops, stasis develops.

How does stasis of blood and lymph occur?

Violation of microcirculation is a necessary prerequisite for the development of subsequent stages of inflammation. Only when the blood flow slows down and stops completely, it becomes possible to accumulate inflammatory mediators in a fairly short segment of the vascular bed.

Extravascular migration of leukocytes and their accumulation at the site of injury is one of the main phenomena in the inflammatory response. Without the release of leukocytes and their accumulation in one place in the form of an infiltrate, there is no inflammation.

The accumulation of cells in the focus of inflammation is called an inflammatory infiltrate. The cellular composition of the infiltrate significantly depends on the etiological factor.

In the event that inflammation is caused by pyogenic microbes (streptococci, staphylococci), then neutrophils predominate in the infiltrate. If it is caused by helminths or is allergic in nature, then eosinophilic granulocytes predominate.

In inflammation caused by pathogens of chronic infections (mycobacterium tuberculosis, anthrax), the infiltrate contains a large number of mononuclear cells. Different blood cells migrate at different rates.

Mechnikov's law

The sequence of release of leukocytes into the focus of acute inflammation was first described by I. I. Mechnikov and learned the name of Mechnikov's law. According to this law, neutrophils are the first to enter the focus of acute inflammation, 1.5-2 hours after the onset of the altering agent, and the maximum accumulation of these cells occurs after 4-6 hours.

The emigrated neutrophils form an emergency line of defense and prepare the work front for macrophages. No wonder they are called "emergency response" cells. Then, after 3-4 hours, monocytes begin to come out. Last but not least, lymphocytes migrate.

Currently, the sequence of emigration is not explained by the simultaneous appearance of chemokines and molecules specific to different leukocytes.

The main place of leukocyte emigration is the postcapillary venule, since the endothelial cells lining the lumen of the venules have the greatest adhesive ability. The exit from the blood flow through the wall of postcapillary venules of leukocytes is preceded by their marginal standing, sticking to the inner surface of the vessel wall, facing the inflammation.

Adhesion (adhesion) of leukocytes to vascular endothelial cells in last years special attention is paid, because the management of the process of interaction of leukocytes with the endothelium opens up fundamentally new ways to prevent an inflammatory reaction.

The creation of inhibitors of the synthesis of adhesive proteins or selective blockers of their receptors would make it possible to prevent the release of leukocytes from the vessels, and, consequently, to prevent the development of inflammation.

What is the reason for the higher adhesiveness of the endothelium at the sites of injury? So far, no definitive answer can be given to this question. Now this is associated with many factors, of which the most important is the increase in the synthesis of adhesive proteins by endothelial cells themselves under the influence of certain inflammatory mediators, in particular chemokines.

Adhesins are molecules that control adhesive reactions. They are produced not only by endothelial cells, but also by leukocytes.

Contribute to the adhesion of leukocytes to the endothelium of microvessels and the changes that occur in the leukocytes themselves when they are activated. First, neutrophils in the initiation phase of inflammation are activated and form aggregates. Leukotrienes contribute to the aggregation of leukocytes.

And, secondly, some products secreted by the leukocytes themselves (lactoferrin) have adhesive properties and enhance adhesion.

After attaching to the endothelium, leukocytes begin to emigrate, penetrating through the inter-endothelial gaps. Recently, the existence of another way of emigration - transendothelial transfer - has been questioned.

How can an unprepared person detect an inflammatory process in his body? What should you pay attention to first of all?

Ivan, any person who listens to his inner feelings will be able to understand that something is wrong. Well-being, a feeling of discomfort, temperature, pain, all this will indicate some kind of inflammatory processes.

Thank you for this story from the inside. Our body is still to study and study. So many subtleties all the time you learn. And it seems like you look outside, well, what is there to study then?

Hello. I am in this state almost all the time. Like there is no temperature (or slightly), but there is an indisposition. Sometimes pustules appear on the body. One doctor suggested taking antibiotics, but somehow I doubt that it is necessary to sit down on them. So I understand, I just have an inflammatory process.

What can you pay attention to?

Nikolai, a wonderful natural “antibiotic” - black walnut extract, although expensive, works great. Drink the course, it will surely get better. This is not the first person to eliminate inflammatory processes of an unclear nature in this way.

Where can you find this extract? Tell me please.

It is available in pharmacies, and even in supermarkets it happens on racks ... In a word, you can find it. Or order on the Internet - I will not give specific addresses, but it is easy to find.

Good afternoon. Such a question, half a year subfebrile temperature, a terrible feeling, like a vegetable, fog in my head. During sleep, late at night and early in the morning the feeling is excellent. Next comes the rise and clear mucus appears from the nose. A bunch of examinations, tests, pills, to no avail. But there is an inflammatory process, stab neutrophils are slightly elevated, and in the city at the beginning of the disease there was streptococcus heme. Groups A. Can you give advice on how this source of eternal inflammation and temperature can be destroyed?

I would be very grateful, it is very difficult to live with a temperature.

Konstantin, I advise you to watch Olga Butakova's video about lymph cleansing. There is a lot of useful information in the material. I added a video to my post.

Source: characteristic signs of inflammation in the body

The inflammatory process is a serious pathology that cannot be treated on its own.

From a young age in the office of an uncle or aunt in a white coat, a frightened child hears these strange words: rhinitis, sinusitis, or, for example, tonsillitis. With age, mysterious diagnoses with the ending "it" are added to the medical record of almost every person. Did you know that all these "its" mean one thing: inflammation of one or another organ. The doctor says nephritis means that the kidneys have caught a cold, arthritis means your joint hurts. Absolutely every structure in the human body can be affected by the inflammatory process. And your body starts to tell you about it quite early and actively.

Five signs of inflammation were identified in ancient times, when not only special medical devices for diagnostics did not exist, but even a simple blood test was out of the question.

Knowing these five characteristic signs of inflammation, you too can determine your disease without any additional methods:

Any inflammatory process in the human body begins with the penetration of a provoking agent into it. It can be a bacterium, a virus, a foreign body, a chemical, or another "provocateur". The body immediately reacts to an unexpected guest, sending its guards to him - leukocyte cells, which are completely unhappy with him and instantly join the battle. In the place of accumulation of exudate, an infiltrate is formed. In the area of ​​the inflammatory process, you will definitely see swelling.

2. Rubor - redness

As a result of the death of damaged cells in the body, special substances are released - inflammatory mediators. First of all, the blood vessels located in the surrounding tissues react to them. To slow down the flow of blood, they expand, fill with blood and the result is the appearance of redness. Thus, redness is another characteristic sign of inflammation.

3. Calor - temperature increase

Vasodilation is an indispensable component of any inflammatory process, also because it must be cleaned up on the battlefield. The blood flow brings oxygen and the necessary building materials to the site of inflammation, and takes away all the decay products. As a result of such active work in the area of ​​​​inflammation, it becomes very hot. The third mandatory sign of inflammation is fever.

The fact that somewhere in the body there is an active fight against the pest must be communicated to the brain, and the best way to do this is some kind of bright and expressive signal. To do this, in almost every part of our body there are special bells - nerve endings. Pain is the best signal for the brain, as a result of which a person understands that something is going wrong in a certain area of ​​his body.

5. Functio laesa - dysfunction

The above signs of inflammation in total give another important symptom of this pathological process - a violation of the function of the affected structure. In a combat area, life cannot continue in the usual way. Therefore, inflammation is always accompanied by functional insufficiency of the affected organ. In some cases, this can be very dangerous for the body, for example, in inflammatory processes of the heart, kidneys or other vital organs.

If you notice these five signs of inflammation in yourself, you urgently need to see a doctor.

Remember that the inflammatory process is a serious pathology that cannot be treated on its own. Consultation with a qualified specialist and the selection of an effective treatment regimen will help your body become a winner in the battle against inflammation.

DEFINITION OF THE CONCEPT AND GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

Inflammation (Greek - phlogosis; lat. - inflammation) is one of the most complex processes that occur in human pathology and are often the cause of many violations of the body's vital functions.

Inflammation is an important problem and subject of study in all branches of medicine and belongs to those phenomena, discussions about the essence of which have been conducted by physicians, biologists and philosophers for centuries. The problem of inflammation is as old as medicine itself. However, there is still no single idea of ​​where the place of inflammation in biology, medicine and pathology is. Therefore, there is no exhaustive definition of this process yet.

Currently, most experts believe that inflammation is a protective and adaptive homeostatic reaction of the body to damage that has been formed in the process of evolution, consisting in certain changes in the terminal vascular bed, blood, connective tissue, aimed at destroying the agent that causes damage and restoring damaged tissue. , which, having become redundant with respect to the stimuli that caused it, is transformed into a typical pathological process. The biological meaning of inflammation as an evolutionarily established process is the elimination or limitation of the focus of damage and the pathogenic agents that caused it. Inflammation is ultimately aimed at localizing, destroying and removing the factors that caused it, "cleansing" the internal environment of the body from a foreign factor or a damaged, altered "one's own" factor, followed by rejection of this damaging factor and the elimination of the consequences of damage.

Being an evolutionarily developed protective process, inflammation at the same time has a damaging effect on the body. Locally, this is manifested by damage to normal cellular elements during the destruction and elimination of everything foreign. In this, predominantly local, process, the whole organism is involved to some extent, and, above all, such systems as the immune, endocrine and nervous systems.

Thus, inflammation in the history of the animal world has formed as a two-pronged process in which there are, and always act, protective and harmful elements. On the one hand, this is damage with a threat to the organ and even to the whole organism, and on the other hand, this is a favorable process that helps the body in the struggle for survival. In general pathology, inflammation is usually considered as a “key” general pathological process, since it has all the features inherent in typical pathological processes.

Inflammation is a typical pathological process that has evolved as a protective and adaptive reaction of the body to the impact of pathogenic (phlogogenic) factors, aimed at localizing, destroying and removing the phlogogenic agent, as well as eliminating the consequences of its actions, characterized by alteration, exudation and proliferation.

ETIOLOGY OF INFLAMMATION

Inflammation occurs as a reaction of the body to a pathogenic stimulus and to the damage it causes. Pathogenic, in this case called phlogogenic, irritants, that is, the causes of inflammation, can be diverse: biological, physical, chemical, both exogenous and endogenous origin.

Endogenous factors that arise in the body itself as a result of another disease include tissue decay products, blood clots, heart attacks, hemorrhages, gall or urinary stones, salt deposits, antigen-antibody complexes. The cause of inflammation can be saprophytic microflora.

With a huge variety of causes, inflammation, in its main features, proceeds in the same way, no matter what it is caused by and wherever it is localized. The variety of influence seems to be extinguished in the uniformity of the answer. That is why inflammation is a typical pathological process.

The development of inflammation, its severity, nature, course and outcome are determined not only by the etiological factor (the strength of the phlogogenic stimulus, its characteristics), but also by the reactivity of the organism, the conditions, the specific circumstances of its occurrence and development.

MAIN CLINICAL SIGNS OF INFLAMMATION

Inflammation is a predominantly local manifestation of the body's general reaction to the action of a pathogenic, extreme stimulus. To denote inflammation in any tissue or organ, use their Latin or Greek name and add the ending - it {- itis). For example: inflammation of the skin - dermatitis, liver - hepatitis, myocardium - myocarditis. At the same time, the entire organism is involved to one degree or another in this predominantly local process.

Local signs of inflammation

The main signs of inflammation have long been known. Even the Roman scientist-encyclopedist A. Celsus, in his treatise "On Medicine", identified the following main local symptoms of inflammation: redness { rubor), swelling { tumor), heat (calories) and pain (dolor). The Roman physician and naturalist K. Galen, to the four signs of inflammation identified by A. Celsus, added the fifth - dysfunction (functio laesa). These symptoms, characteristic of acute inflammation of the external integument, have been known for more than 2000 years, and have not lost their significance today. Over time, only their explanation has changed. These five signs have stood the test of time and received modern pathophysiological and pathomorphological characteristics.

Redness- a bright clinical sign of inflammation, associated with the expansion of arterioles, the development of arterial hyperemia and the "arterialization" of venous blood in the focus of inflammation.

Swelling in inflammation, it is due to an increase in the blood supply to the tissue, the formation of an infiltrate due to the development of exudation and edema, and swelling of tissue elements.

Heat develops as a result of an increased influx of warm arterial blood, as well as as a result of the activation of metabolism, increased heat production and heat transfer in the focus of inflammation.

Pain occurs as a result of irritation of the endings of sensory nerves by various biologically active substances (histamine, serotonin, bradykinin, some prostaglandins, etc.), a shift in the pH of the internal environment to the acid side, and mechanical compression of nerve fiber receptors by inflammatory edema.

Impaired function on the basis of inflammation occurs, as a rule, always; sometimes it may be limited to the dysfunction of the affected tissue, but more often the whole organism suffers, especially when inflammation occurs in vital organs. Violation of the function of the inflamed organ is associated with structural damage, the development of pain, and a disorder of its neuroendocrine regulation.

In chronic inflammation and inflammation of the internal organs, some of these signs may be absent.

The cause of many diseases, including heart disease, obesity, etc. is chronic inflammation in the body. Chronic inflammation is an enemy that knows how to disguise itself well, because it is very difficult to independently detect signs of an inflammatory process in the body.

However, it is possible to identify this initiator of disease processes if you look closely at the signs of the inflammatory process and consult a doctor in time to undergo the necessary tests. the site will help you bring the inflammatory process to clean water.

What are the signs of inflammation in the body

Inflammation is the body's response to injury. As a rule, we recognize inflammation in the body by typical signs: redness, fever and swelling of the damaged area, as well as restriction of mobility, for example, in the case of a sprained ankle or bruised finger.

Chronic inflammation accompanies all diseases ending in "it" - arthritis, hepatitis, bursitis, etc. The inflammatory process can proceed “quietly” inside the body, and a person may not be aware of its presence.

However, your body gives you some clues, and if you ignore them, you can face some pretty serious health problems in the future.

6 Common Signs of an Inflammatory Process

1. Pain. If your muscles, joints are constantly aching, or your body is aching in general, you can bet on the inflammatory process in the body. When your immune cells or fat cells release inflammatory chemicals called cytokines, you feel more pain and aches. Fibromyalgia and arthritis are classic symptoms of severe inflammation in the body, but extensive body pain while getting out of bed in the morning is also a sign of an inflammatory process. Pain in the soles (plantar fasciitis) is also a sign of inflammation in the body.

2. Fatigue.

Fatigue can be caused by various factors, one of which is the inflammatory process in the body. When your immune cells are constantly busy producing antibodies, you are overcome by fatigue. For example, when you have the flu, a cold, or another illness that causes inflammation.

3. Overweight.

It was once believed that fat cells store extra calories and keep you warm in winter. It is now also known that fat cells play the role of chemical plants.

They are capable of producing a variety of chemicals, some of which can be compared to those produced by immune cells in the process of fighting infection. The more fat in your body, the more of these substances they produce.

The problem is that such chemicals lead to insulin resistance, which makes it difficult to lose weight.

4. Redness and / or itching of the skin.

Redness and itching are classic signs of chronic inflammation in the body. These symptoms can be caused by allergies, autoimmune diseases, or a weakened liver.

Itchy skin accompanies people with hepatitis, but it can occur in case of inflammation of the liver for various reasons. An inflamed liver produces large amounts of an inflammatory chemical called C-reactive protein.

5. Diagnosed autoimmune disease.

Chronic inflammation is largely responsible for the symptoms of most autoimmune diseases - pain, fatigue and poor sleep. Typical examples of autoimmune diseases are:

• psoriasis;
• disorders of the thyroid gland;
• rheumatoid arthritis;
• lupus.

6. Allergies and infections. If you suffer from allergic reactions, the inflammatory process in the body is manifested by swelling, redness, itching and pain.

Such symptoms are the result of an immune response to harmful, harmless substances. Infections are also a typical cause of inflammatory processes, especially if they become chronic form. Some viruses and bacteria live in your body for years, constantly stimulating the immune system and releasing toxins into the bloodstream. Among them:

Chronic infections are a very big burden on the immune system and liver, so you need to take care of strengthening the immune system.

If you have found the above signs in yourself, you need to consult a doctor who, based on the tests, will prescribe the necessary treatment and nutrition for inflammation.
