What do mast cells secrete?
Mast cells release histamines which will dilate small blood vessels during inflammation. They are scattered throughout the connective tissues of the body, especially beneath the surface of the skin, near blood vessels and lymphatic vessels, within nerves, throughout the respiratory system, and in the digestive and urinary tracts.
What causes heat in inflammation?
Blood rushes to the site of inflammation so as to supply immune cells to fight the source of inflammation. This causes an increase in heat at the site.
What causes edema that occurs during the inflammatory process?
Increased capillary permeability
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.

Can napprox use for preventing migraine pain?
Naprox (naproxen sodium) can be used to treat migraine. As a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, it works directly on the inflammation of nerves and blood vessels that are causing you so much pain during a migraine. Naproxen can also be used in helping to prevent migraines by reducing prostaglandins in the body which set up inflammation which kicks off the migraine process.
