Inflammatory markers are blood substances that indicate inflammation in the body. They are essential for diagnosing and monitoring health conditions.
Over 6 million tests are conducted annually to assess infections, autoimmune diseases, and inflammatory disorders.
Contact us today to schedule a consultation and take the first step towards better health.
C-Reactive Protein (CRP): CRP is a protein made by the liver in response to inflammation. High CRP levels can signal acute or chronic inflammation and are used to diagnose and monitor inflammatory conditions. CRP levels are considered normal when under 10 mg/L, while levels above 100 mg/L are considered high.
Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR): ESR measures how quickly red blood cells settle at the bottom of a tube. An elevated ESR indicates inflammation or infection but does not specify the exact cause. ESR levels typically range from 0-20 mm/hr for men and 0-30 mm/hr for women.
Understanding and monitoring inflammatory markers are crucial in healthcare. They aid in diagnosing diseases, as certain markers are linked to conditions like autoimmune disorders and infections.
Additionally, they help in monitoring disease progression by tracking how well treatments are working and the course of the illness.
These markers also guide treatment decisions, enabling healthcare providers to adjust therapies for better inflammation management and improved patient outcomes.
Whether through targeted medication, tailored dietary adjustments, or strategic lifestyle changes, our aim is to significantly reduce inflammation and elevate your overall health. We are committed to working closely with you throughout your journey and regularly monitoring your progress to ensure that we address any emerging issues.
We strive to achieve the best possible outcomes for your well-being by making tailored adjustments as needed.

The test involves drawing a small amount of blood. The procedure is quick, typically taking only a few minutes. Try to stay calm and relaxed during the blood draw. If you feel anxious or uncomfortable about needles or blood tests, let the healthcare professional know.
After the blood draw, some mild bruising or discomfort at the site of the blood draw is normal. Apply a cold compress if needed. Your healthcare provider will inform you of when to expect your results.
