Inflammation is the body's natural response to protect the tissues and help them recover from injury, infection or disease. Normally, CRP levels in the blood are low, but these levels can rise significantly if there is a serious infection or any other inflammatory condition. For example, a cut or small injury causes redness, swelling and pain for a few days, this is a sudden and temporary inflammation.
An inflammation can also occur inside the body. If such an inflammation keeps going too long, it will damage healthy tissues, and then it is called long-term or chronic inflammation. CRP levels can indicate the presence or extent of inflammation but not the source or cause of it. A C-reactive protein test helps diagnose and monitor inflammations in chronic conditions such as:
- Fungal infection
- Bacterial infections like sepsis or blood poisoning
- Osteomyelitis (infection of the bone)
- Some forms of arthritis
- Autoimmune diseases such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, vasculitis
- Inflammatory bowel disease, disorders in the intestines
- Lung diseases such as asthma

Test Necessity
Doctors may recommend a CRP test to detect and monitor health conditions which are associated with inflammation. This test is suggested if you have symptoms of infection, such as:
- Fever
- Chill
- Redness or flushing
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Rapid breathing and/or heart rate
A CRP test is also done to guide the treatment of sepsis, a serious complication when a bacterial infection causes inflammation throughout the body.
The CRP test helps in assessing how well medications are working in chronic inflammatory autoimmune diseases like arthritis and lupus.
Test Preparation
There is no special preparation needed for a CRP test. You don't have to fast or avoid liquids before the test. However, fasting may be required if other tests are done along with it. Your doctor will let you know the necessary requirements beforehand.
