C-Reactive Protein (CRP) Test In Dhanbad - Price & Details

The CRP test is a useful tool for doctors to comprehend and address various health concerns. It's suggested if you have signs of inflammation, such as fever, a fast heart rate, or muscle soreness. After surgery or injury, it may be advised to detect infections during your recovery.

 C-reactive protein levels in the blood are categorised as follows:

• Normal: Equal to less than 0.3 mg/dL
• Minor elevation: 0.3 to 1.0 mg/dL
• Moderate elevation: 1.0 to 10.0 mg/dL
• Marked elevation: More than 10.0 mg/dL

CRP levels can fluctuate due to factors like recent injury, mild elevations unrelated to any underlying illness, and slightly higher levels observed in females and the elderly. Additionally, lifestyle factors such as obesity, pregnancy, smoking, specific medications, and magnesium supplements can influence CRP levels.
