yes they do because histamine a cell signalling molecule. it increases the permeability in the capaillaries which in turn means that the tissue is producing more fluid and in turn causes inflamation. usually happens around the foot or hands common in the joints. it is usally very painfull and people get treatments for it ie an operation or an injection to remove the fluid or to remove the nerve around that capillary.

What swells in biology?
There are many things that "swell" in terms of biology, one of them being the blood vessels (more specifically capillaries) which swell during inflammation.
Why does the polarity of a cell membrane reverse during an action potential?
During an action potential the neuron receives a stimulus causing the cell membrane to become more permeable to sodium than potassium, calling the polarity to change.
When is a neurolemma more permeable to potassium than sodium?
during depolarization
Does pregnancy cause inflammation in the uterus?
Pregnancy does not cause inflammation in the uterus. Inflammation of the uterus during pregnancy would serve no biological purpose.
What causes capillaries to dilate during inflammatory response?
Histamine
What does body release during inflammation?
during inflammation,the body releses histamine during the process of vaso dilation that is triggered by the increase of mast cell,l and basophils that coveres the skin's epithelial tissue.
Drugs are applied on the skin during?
Drugs are applied to the skin during inflammation or infection.
What vessels contain elastic fibers in the walls that are stretched during systole?
Capillaries
How does the cell membrane with chloroplast during photosynthesis?
it is selective permeable thus allowing water to photosynthetic cells
Which is NOT a cardinal sign of inflammation?
During the first exposure to an antigen antibodies are produced
Can chymotrypsin treat inflammation?
As an anti-inflammatory agent, the chymotrypsin and the other protease enzymes prevent tissue damage during inflammation and the formation of fibrin clots.
When is the speed of blood slowest in blood vessels?
Veins are where the blood flow is the slowest. Blood flow velocity decreases from the aorta to the arteries to capillaries.
