How does our body provide natural protection against injury

Platelets adhere to tissues around the injured spot creating a blood clot and closing injured blood vessels. Inflammation protects against infection and removes any foreign objects or debris caused by the damage. In the time the body begins to replace the injured tissue, make the wound contract, and fix the injured blood vessels. Lastly scar tissue rebuilds itself and strengthens the damaged spot.
