What are the cardinal signs of inflammation and how does each relate to changes in the blood vessels at site of inflammation?

The cardinal signs of inflammation are redness, heat, swelling, pain, and loss of function. Redness and heat result from vasodilation of blood vessels at the site of inflammation, allowing more blood to flow to the area. Swelling, or edema, occurs due to increased permeability of blood vessels, leading to the leakage of fluid into the surrounding tissue. Pain is caused by the release of inflammatory mediators that sensitize nerve endings. Loss of function can result from the pain and swelling affecting normal tissue function.
