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.

My blood report shows a slightly higher CRP of 4.17 and increased immunoglobulin levels. I do not have any symptoms, and all other tests are normal: LDL cholesterol 98, ESR 10, blood pressure normal, and fasting sugar 71. What could be the reason for these findings?

My CRP is 46. Is it too high? Am I in danger? I have fever, cold and body pain for 5 days and I am taking Abphylline tablet along with Montek LC. Fever is not going away. My ESR and CRP are high. Am I safe? Please check my report.

Please help me interpret my hs CRP value, which is reported as 14.42 mg/L in my blood test. When I consulted my doctor, they mentioned that hs CRP can increase due to any type of inflammation in the body. I recently underwent an RCT and a tooth implant procedure. Should I repeat the test to reassess the hs CRP level, or is this elevation expected due to the recent dental treatments?
