Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The inflammatory response increases the amount of blood flow to the site of injury to get more nutrients and white blood cells to an area in need. To increase blood flow to the area, the blood vessels get wider (dilate).
Detailed explanation-2: -Immune cells modulate wound healing by promoting cellular cross-talk via secreting signaling molecules, including cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors. For successful wound healing, a delicate balance in this process needs to be maintained.
