Inflammatory Disease

Inflammatory Disease refers to a group of conditions characterized by inflammation, which is the body’s response to injury or infection. This response can manifest as redness, heat, swelling, pain, and loss of function in affected tissues. Inflammatory diseases can affect various systems in the body, leading to a range of symptoms and complications. Common examples include rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and systemic lupus erythematosus. The underlying causes of these diseases can vary, including autoimmune reactions, chronic infections, or environmental factors. Effective management often involves reducing inflammation through medications, lifestyle changes, and addressing underlying causes.
