Question 1

I'm really curious about C-reactive protein. I heard it can indicate inflammation in the body, but I'm not entirely sure what it means for overall health. What are the possible ways to reduce its levels? Is there more information I should know about it? I'm kind of worried because I've been told my levels are a bit high.

Accepted Answer

C-reactive protein also known as CRP is a substance produced by liver and it's produced in response to inflammation.
The way to reduce is to treat the cause.
As inflammation reduces, CRP will reduce

Question 2

I've got a 100 fever and took a Pacimol 650 tablet about four hours ago, but I'm starting to feel feverish again. Is it okay to take another tablet now? How long do I need to wait between taking two tablets?

Accepted Answer

Concerning test results can be worrisome.

_Possible reasons for high CRP:_

1. _Inflammation_: High CRP levels indicate inflammation in the body.
2. _Infection_: Bacterial or viral infections can cause elevated CRP.
3. _Autoimmune disorders_: Conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus can lead to high CRP.
4. _Vitamin D deficiency_: Severe vitamin D deficiency, like your husband's, can contribute to inflammation.

_Red skin and pain:_

1. _Inflammatory response_: The red skin and pain in the wrist could be an inflammatory response, possibly related to the high CRP.

_Prescribed medications and supplements:_

1. _Calcirol (Vitamin D)_: Will help address the severe vitamin D deficiency, which may contribute to reducing inflammation.
2. _COQ10_: This antioxidant may help reduce oxidative stress and inflammation.
3. _Shellcal HD 12 (Calcium supplement)_: Will support bone health, but its direct impact on CRP levels is unclear.

_Additional recommendations:_

1. _Monitor CRP levels_: Regularly check CRP levels to assess the effectiveness of treatment.
2. _Address underlying causes_: Identify and address underlying causes of inflammation, such as infections or autoimmune disorders.
3. _Maintain a healthy lifestyle_: Encourage your husband to maintain a balanced diet, exercise regularly, and manage stress.
