The protection given to us by God
“The human body has developed several means of protecting itself from injury and infection” (Heuther, McCance, Brashers, Rote, 2008, p.121). Our bodies have the equivalent of a highly trained military called immunity, to protect it boarders and defend life itself. If enemy invaders such as microoragisms breach the body’s first line of defense physical, mechanical and biochemical, the body responds with a counter attack called inflammation. This highly specialized group of warrior’s main purpose is to prevent the body form further damage and prevent infection allowing the body to rebuild and heal in order for the body to continue its war against foreign invaders (Heuther, McCance, Brashers, Rote, 2008, p.121).
The warriors of inflammation are transported to the site of injury by the blood stream. Any area of the body that has a blood supply is protected by these warriors. During the initial response to injury vasodilatation occurs, diverting some supplies from other areas of body and flooding the injured area with bigger blood vessels and increased blood flow (Heuther, McCance, Brashers, Rote, 2008, p.123). These bigger blood vessels warriors are more porous and have a secret weapon; they leak fluid that causes swelling at the site of injury. In essence creating a wall to, prevent further attack and damage. The blood at the site becomes thicker and slower due to this fluid. An increase of red blood cells warriors collect at the site of injury causing inflammation, warmth, and redness in a effort to destroy and contain their enemy. The body then sends in the medic’s leukocytes, plasma proteins, and biochemical mediators. The medics mediate for the RBC”s warriors and prevent them from going into civilian territory and violating healthy tissue. The clotting systems or the surgeons prevent the spread of blood and inflammation to areas of peace, the WBC nurses clean up and destroy infectious agents and the plasma protein doctors fight off toxins and bacteria (Heuther, McCance, Brashers, Rote, 2008, p.124).
Once this army has their enemy at bay, clean up and reconstruction occurs. Removal of the carnage of battle is necessary. The products of battle, dead cells, bacterial products, and products on inflammation are transported through the lymphatic system for disposal. Reconstruction of battle ground begins. Treaties begin, to prevent chronic inflammation that can last for weeks or months. There times when battles of inflammation must be contained with granulomatusus treaties, so the remaining insurgence are held at bay and RBC warriors are not a threat to surrounding tissue or the individual. Granulomatusus is the response by the body to contain the enemy infection and stop its RBC’s warrior s from damaging surrounding healthy tissue by maintaining troops in the war torn area, when other problems in the body stop the RBC’s from winning the war. The ultimate goal of this army is total destruction of its enemy and healing (Heuther, McCance, Brashers, Rote, 2008, p.124).
