Answered by Dr. Arun Gangadhar

What does high CRP level indicate?

Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. You still have a fever that means either you are still infected with COVID-19, or you could be having a secondary bacterial infection. You do not have any shortness of breath, and SpO2 (oxygen saturation level) is in the range of 96-99 %, so you do not have a severe COVID-19 infection. I want to do few more blood tests like CBC (complete blood count), serum procalcitonin, etc., to rule out any secondary bacterial infections.
