You are pruning a rosebush and puncture the skin on your thumb with a thorn. The next day you note that the area is swollen. Which of the following best explains the swelling that has occurred?

A) Humoral immunity activation results in localized tissue damage and edema of the tissue surrounding the injury site. B) Localized vasodilation and increased capillary permeability result in plasma leakage into the tissue surrounding the injury site. C) Cell-mediated immunity activation results in chemotaxis and increased capillary permeability. D) There is an infection, resulting in edema to the surrounding tissue.

While placing a 52-year-old female on the stretcher, she begins to seize. Your immediate action would be to:
