1. Redness (rubor): Inflammation causes an increase in blood flow to the affected area, resulting in redness. This is due to the dilation of blood vessels in response to inflammatory mediators.
2. Swelling (tumor): Inflammation leads to an accumulation of fluid in the tissues, causing swelling. This is a result of increased permeability of blood vessels, allowing fluid and proteins to leak into the surrounding tissues.
3. Heat (calor): Inflammation is often accompanied by an increase in temperature at the affected site. This is due to the increased blood flow and metabolic activity in the area, leading to a rise in local temperature.
4. Pain (dolor): Inflammation can cause pain at the affected site, which is often due to the release of inflammatory mediators that sensitize nerve endings. Pain serves as a protective mechanism, alerting the body to potential damage or injury.
5. Loss of function (functio laesa): Inflammation can impair the function of the affected tissue or organ, leading to limitations in movement or performance. This is often a temporary effect of inflammation as the body works to repair and heal the damaged tissue.

Five Cardinal Features of Inflammation
1. Redness (Rubor): Increased blood flow to the inflamed area, causing dilation of blood vessels and giving the area a reddish appearance.
2. Swelling (Tumor): Accumulation of fluid and cells in the inflamed tissue, resulting in increased volume and edema.
3. Heat (Calor): Increased metabolic activity and blood flow to the inflamed area, leading to a rise in local temperature.
4. Pain (Dolor): Stimulation of pain receptors due to the release of inflammatory mediators and increased pressure on surrounding tissues.
5. Loss of Function (Functio Laesa): Impairment of normal tissue function and movement due to pain, swelling, and tissue damage.
