Treatment and symptoms of CRP 8.66 mg/L | Diet for high C Reactive Protein level 8.66 mg/L

High CRP level of 8.66 can cause a number of symptoms.

An abnormal CRP (C-reactive protein) level of 8.66 may point to inflammation in the body, which can be due to infections, autoimmune conditions, or chronic disease. A CRP level of 8.66 often does not cause direct symptoms but may correspond with underlying issues such as joint pain, fatigue, fever, or swelling depending on the condition triggering inflammation. As a sensitive inflammatory marker, CRP helps assess disease activity and monitor responses to treatment, especially in cardiovascular and rheumatologic contexts. Multiple treatments are on the table, but adjusting your diet is the first step you must take.

Ideal levels of CRP in the blood are approximately 0.1 - 3 mg/L (Men)

What to do after CRP blood test?

If bleeding occurs after your CRP test, raise your arm and apply pressure to the spot for at least 3 minutes. It’s normal to see some bruising after a CRP blood draw. If you feel pain following the CRP test, apply ice wrapped in a towel to the area for 10 minutes. For anything more than mild discomfort, contact your doctor.
