tl;dr "inflammation" is a sign that your body is fighting some disease or injury. It means you're sick. Men who live alone are chronically sick. But not women - why is that? It's probably because men who are alone are actually alone while women are just living alone but still have intimate relationships.
As you already know, human touch releases beneficial hormones. "Touch starvation" happens when you're deprived of that. How long has it been since anyone touched you? "Forever" right?
