Step 1
Inflammation is a process by which the immune system defends the body from various infectious agents. It is a part of the body's defense mechanism and it helps in the healing process as well. For a short duration, inflammation can prove to be beneficial because it kills the harmful bacteria in the body.
Inflammation can be of two types based on the time duration for which it is observed. Acute inflammation is observed for shorter durations and can occur as a result of an illness or an injury. Chronic inflammation lasts for a longer duration and can prove to be harmful for the person.
