focal infection
A focal infection refers to a localized infection in a specific part of the body, from which pathogens, primarily bacteria, can spread to other parts of the body. It acts as a central point or focus from which the infection can potentially progress and cause secondary infections elsewhere in the body. Dental abscess, tonsillitis and sinusitis are common examples of focal infections.
