A positive CRP indicates inflammation or infection. It is not a disease itself but a marker. Follow the doctor advice, and once the cause is treated, CRP usually returns to normal.

Take a C-REACTIVE PROTEIN (CRP) - QUANTITATIVE Test or Take a COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) Test

Question

I usually feel discomfort with pain like the touch of a needle in my anus throughout the day and night. Sometimes my stomach is painful and foods are not digested easily. I feel gas in my stomach. At night I feel a burning sensation and pain because of my wound in the anal canal. I have taken many allopathic homeopathic and ayurvedic medicines but none have worked. Please suggest a minimal medicine with a powerful dose to help me recover. This is my last try otherwise I fear serious consequences?
