I'm really worried because my CRP level is way higher than normal at 39.1. I've also been dealing with a high fever. What could be causing this and how should I go about treating it?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Common causes of elevated CRP levels include infections, inflammatory conditions, tissue injury, and chronic diseases. To treat this, you may need to address the underlying cause. If it is due to an infection, antibiotics may be prescribed. If it is due to inflammation, anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen or naproxen may be recommended. In the case of chronic diseases, managing the underlying condition is important. For your high fever, you can take acetaminophen (e.g., Tylenol) to help reduce the fever and make sure to stay hydrated. Rest is also important to help your body fight off the infection or inflammation. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management based on your specific condition.

I'm really concerned about having a fever every evening for the past two months. It never goes above 100 degrees in the evenings but stays under 98.6 in the morning and during the day. I consulted a pulmonologist and had a chest contrast CT scan. The results showed small calcified left hilar lymph nodes. Could this be causing my evening fever? I'm also starting to feel weak and tired with my daily activities. Could you give me some insight into what's going on?
