Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my 6 year old son has recently had blood tests carried out. This was done because he had been feeling tired. His crp was 11. I have been told that this is a sign of an infection. He has been referred to a paediatician. How worried should we be about this.
RP of 11 is an abnormal report, but you need not worry about it as it does not signify a serious infection or illness. More than the blood test, what is more important is the general condition of the child and we should always combine both and see.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
