Question 1

My CRP value is 3.7 mg per L. My lab report mentions that it should be less than 5 mg per L, but online sources say it should be under 3 mg per L. Which one is correct? Does this mean I have any infection or inflammation?

Question 2

My baby is having fever and when tested, the blood report showed a CRP level of around 28. I want to know what can be done so that it comes under 10, as under 10 is considered normal. Are there any fruits or vegetables my baby can eat? Or any syrup or tablet that can help bring it under control? Please advise.

Question 3

My sister recently had a CRP test, and her results showed a value of 11 to 12 mg/L, which the report mentions as highly positive. I started researching CRP levels online and became very worried, as I read that CRP above 4 mg/L can be associated with serious conditions like heart disease and cancer. My sister has a 4 month old baby, and her doctor has recommended one tablet to help reduce the CRP level, but mentioned that it may alter the taste of her breast milk. Could you please advise what should be done to safely reduce her CRP levels, considering she is breastfeeding? Are there lifestyle or dietary measures that can help lower CRP naturally?

My daughter is having fever for the last four days. Our pediatrician said it is a viral infection since it is in the air. But after blood reports were done her blood report shows CRP is 161. What does it mean? Please help me

A CRP of 161 shows strong inflammation, likely from viral infection. Continue fluids and medicine. Monitor closely. If fever lasts or worsens, repeat tests or change in treatment may be needed.
