There are 5 cardinal signs of Inflammation:

  1. Pain - the inflamed area is likely to be painful, especially when touched.
  2. Redness - this is because the capillaries are filled up with more blood than usual
  3. Immobility - there may be some loss of function
  4. Swelling - caused by an accumulation of fluid
  5. Heat - as with the reason for the redness, more blood in the affected area makes it feel hot to the touch
