👉 Infection, particularly bacterial or viral, occurs when pathogens enter the body and begin to multiply, often overwhelming the host's immune defenses. The draw-infection refers to the process by which these pathogens exploit host cells, hijack cellular machinery, and evade immune responses, leading to tissue damage and disease. This can result in symptoms ranging from mild discomfort to severe complications, such as sepsis or organ failure. The body's immune system, while crucial for defense, can sometimes overreact, causing inflammation and further harm. Additionally, the presence of pathogens can disrupt normal bodily functions, leading to systemic issues like fever, fatigue, and immunosuppression, which can make the body more susceptible to secondary infections. Understanding and managing infection is critical in healthcare to prevent these detrimental effects and promote recovery.
