Why does swelling occur in a tissue after an injury?

The increased availability of nutrients allows microorganisms to replicate. The skin and mucous membranes are body's first line of defense and are mostly impenetrable to microorganisms, unless broken or damaged by tissue injury.


How does the first line of defense protect the body against pathogens?

The body's three lines of defense against a pathogen (germ) are: 1. Anatomical and physiological barriers-Includes skin, hair, mucous membranes, saliva, tears, stomach acid, pH, temperature. 2. Non-specific response-Includes phagocytosis of pathogen, inflammation of tissues, vasodilation (increased blood flow to area), and swelling. 3. Specific response-antibody production and cell mediated immunity to particular pathogen. Maintained indefinitely.


What is the code for cecal mass?

Based on this definition: "Cecal mass is a space occupying lesion that involves the first part (cecum) of the colon. It can be benign or cancerous," I would code 568.89. This is the code in the alphabetic index under "lesion, colon." The tabular index does not list "lesion" under this code but it doesn't exclude it, either, so based on the alphabetic index, 568.89 should be acceptable.

Do people snort Xanax?

Yes, people snort Xanax by crushing the pill and sniffing it up their nose. This is a useless way of ingesting the Xanax though, as it does not cross the mucous membranes in the nose. It is only absorbed once the drip is swallowed down the back of the throat to the stomach, just as if it were eaten normally in the first place. Benzodiazepines are NOT water soluble, therefore they will not be absorbed in the nasal mucous membranes. Just eat them.
