​What is Pathology - When it comes to inflammation, what's the difference between acute and chronic inflammation ?
​Acute inflammation occurs as a result of an injury. It usually has a quick onset and a short duration, as the name implies (Latin acutus, "sharp"). It can linger for a few hours or even days. Chronic inflammation, on the other hand (Greek chronos, "period") lasts longer. Acute inflammation can progress to chronic inflammation, but the precise point at which one form of inflammation transitions to another is unknown. In most circumstances, the onset of a chronic inflammation cannot be determined. Acute inflammation produces different pathologic alterations than chronic inflammation. Neutrophils are the most common mediators of acute inflammation. Macrophages, lymphocytes, and plasma cells mediate chronic inflammation, which frequently involves fibroblasts, angioblasts, and other tissue components found in healing processes.
