A CRP test is recommended for individuals experiencing symptoms of inflammation, such as unexplained fever, joint pain, swelling, fatigue, or redness. It is particularly useful for diagnosing infections, autoimmune conditions like lupus or rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel diseases. High-sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) testing is suggested for individuals at risk of cardiovascular diseases, such as those with a family history of heart disease, high cholesterol, or other risk factors like smoking, obesity, or diabetes. It is also used for monitoring patients undergoing treatment for chronic inflammatory conditions or infections to evaluate treatment effectiveness. Pregnant women may require CRP testing to rule out infections that can affect pregnancy outcomes. Always consult your doctor if you suspect inflammation or are at risk for heart disease, as they can determine whether a CRP test is appropriate.
