Inflammation
2

Walk me through a splinter in the hand
A
splinter goes in hand-> causes trauma and carries some microbes into the skin-> macrophages and mast cells recognize the components of tissue damage and microbes and orchestrate the process of inflammation. The macrophage is the orchestrator and releases mediators that causes all sorts of changes. The ultimate goal is to get a variety of hematopoietic cells (we primarily want neutrophils) and increased blood flow.
