Atrophy ✅ Correct Answer: B. Tumor (Swelling)---🧠 Concept Breakdown- Acute inflammation is the body’s rapid response to injury or infection. - Cardinal signs (Celsus + Virchow): - Rubor (Redness) - Calor (Heat) - Tumor (Swelling) - Dolor (Pain) - Functio laesa (Loss of function) - Mediators: Histamine, prostaglandins, bradykinin, cytokines - Vascular changes: Vasodilation, increased permeability, leukocyte migration---⚠️ Caution for Students- Don’t confuse tumor (swelling) with neoplastic tumor — context matters! - Pallor and cyanosis are not signs of inflammation — common distractors. - Know the sequence of events: vasodilation → permeability → exudation → neutrophil migration---🩺 Clinical Relevance- Seen in infections, trauma, autoimmune conditions - Understanding mediators helps in pharmacology (NSAIDs, steroids) - Chronic inflammation leads to fibrosis, granulomas, and tissue damage---🎙️ Title"Inflammation Demystified: PYQ Mastery for NEET PG & FMGE"📝 DescriptionThis episode breaks down a classic PYQ on inflammation — one of the most tested topics in Pathology.
