1.Inflammatory response
2.Ploriferation
3.Remodeling and tissue maturation
PHASE 1
What are the common names for this phase?
Inflammatory response and acute stage
How long does this phase last?
Acute stage starts immediately after injury and between 24 to 48 hours
What are the clinical signs/symptoms of this phase?
Redness, swelling, heat and pain and loss of function
What happens, physiologically, in this phase?
After the skin is damaged vasoconstriction acts, platelets plug develops and causes edema and because of the entry of fluids to the tissue vasodilation happens. In addition, phagocytes cells attack the damaged area by killing toxic microorganisms
What role do platelets have in this phase?

They are cells that eat and they destroy dead ones and by doing so the development of new ones increases thus regeneration of tissue occurs
Discuss how the body uses vasoconstriction and vasodilation in this phase.
When skin is injured vasoconstriction of the tissue takes place due to the absence of red blood cells, it is an immediate response that the body has because of damaged materials and vasodilation rises blood vessel penetrability letting fluids and erythrocytes to get in hence swelling of the skin occurs
What is blood vessel permeability and how does it change in this phase?
In my opinion, permeability of an artery vessel is the grade of enlargement in them that causes to rupture and become leaky for outsider particles to enter in the extracellular space. Therefore, due to this influx of too much liquid, edema occurs as well as slow blood flow triggering obstruction of the blood tubules
How does the body stop bleeding in this phase?
The hormone serotonin yields in the reduction of blood loss due to its characteristics of clotting
