👉 Healing from an infection involves a complex biological process where the body identifies and combats the invading pathogens, such as bacteria or viruses, through the immune system. Initially, immune cells like macrophages and neutrophils recognize and engulf the invaders, clearing them from the body. This triggers an inflammatory response, characterized by redness, swelling, heat, and pain, which helps to isolate and eliminate the infection. Subsequently, the adaptive immune system activates, producing specific antibodies and memory cells that target the pathogens more efficiently. Over time, these immune responses lead to the destruction and removal of the infection, while also repairing damaged tissues through processes like cell regeneration and tissue remodeling. However, if the infection persists or the immune response is weakened, it can lead to chronic conditions or systemic health issues.
