C-reactive protein (CRP) is a vital marker of inflammation in the body. Elevated CRP levels are indicative of inflammation, infection, or tissue injury. This test helps assess the presence and intensity of inflammatory conditions such as arthritis or infections. Normal CRP levels are typically below 1 mg/dL, but slight elevations may be seen in response to minor inflammation. Higher levels may suggest more severe conditions, requiring further medical evaluation.

Individuals who should consider the CRP test include those with suspected inflammatory conditions, infections, or chronic diseases. This test is crucial for assessing the degree of inflammation in the body, aiding in the diagnosis and monitoring of conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, cardiovascular diseases, and infections.
