ASO 200 suggests recent streptococcal infection, which can trigger joint inflammation or rheumatic fever. This type of arthritis is usually treatable with antibiotics, anti inflammatory drugs, and follow up. Consult a rheumatologist for long term management if symptoms persist.

Please review my latest medical lab report. Am I suffering from arthritis? Some of my other reports also show minimal derangement, but CRP and RF levels are significantly high.
