What chemical produced by white blood cells increase blood flow to an injured area?
Histamine is the chemical produced by white blood cells that increase blood flow to an injured area. It causes blood vessels to dilate, which allows more blood to flow to the affected area to deliver immune cells and nutrients for healing.
