What is an infection called that is present in a small, confined area?

  1. Systemic infection

  2. Local infection

  3. Viral infection

  4. Bacterial infection

The correct answer is: Local infection

A systemic infection is one that affects the entire body and can spread throughout multiple systems. A viral infection is caused by a virus, while a bacterial infection is caused by bacteria. These types of infections can both be either localized or systemic depending on the severity and spread. However, a localized infection is only present in a small, specific area and does not spread throughout the body. Thus, the correct answer is B- local infection.
