Injury Resolution

Meaning

Injury resolution is the comprehensive, active physiological process by which damaged tissues are systematically repaired and restored to their pre-injury structural and functional integrity. This process extends beyond mere wound healing, encompassing the full cascade of inflammation control, cellular debris clearance, matrix remodeling, and eventual functional tissue regeneration. Optimal hormonal status, particularly adequate levels of anabolic and anti-inflammatory hormones, is a major determinant of efficient and complete resolution.
