If
the immune system of the body is weak then swelling occurs on the affected areas
due to the flow of protein matter in the arteries.
The
swelling also occurs due to mosquito bite or close contact with some harmful
chemical. The affected spot also becomes red and hot. The pain begins and the
flow of blood increases in the problem spot and the working power of the
muscles decreases.
If
the infection is severe then the swelling increases and the dead white cells
turn into pus cells. In such a situation the antibiotics are given. Other
remedies like ointment, balms and oil massage are also used.

and bruises and work with patience. The immune system could be strengthened by
the balanced and nutritious food.
Avoid dampness inside the house and keep it airy. The sunlight inside the house is a welcome thing. The dampness, darkness and absence of fresh air provides a fertile ground for infections.
