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?

Mildly raised CRP may indicate minor inflammation or immune response; not serious if asymptomatic.

Dr. Hema Suggests...

Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test or Take a Immunoglobulin Panel [IgG, IgM & IgA] - Serum Test

Hello doctor I did my chest X ray after 23 days of being covid positive. Currently I have a little bit of coughing tiredness and a slight feverish feeling from inside. As per my report is there anything to worry about?

Hello Doctor, My mother is 52 years old, and her CRP is 0.27. Is this normal or risky? For the past month, she has been suffering from mouth ulcers, which had healed but have reappeared in the last two days. I am attaching the doctor prescription and test report. Please guide me

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?
