2 months baby CRP is 102.4 mg/L
Hello, I would like to inquire whether the elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) levels are attributable to the recent vaccinations. The test was conducted approximately 24 hours post-vaccination. Is an elevated CRP a typical response to vaccination, or should we consider hospitalization for the infant?

CRP of 102 mg/L is not normal and is not related to vaccination. Please consult a nearby pediatrician immediately for proper evaluation. Even if the baby appears active, such a high CRP suggests possible infection or inflammation. Sometimes, bottle-fed babies can show higher CRP levels, but this still needs medical assessment and should not be ignored.

Some time urine infection can lead to this much high crp so get urine test done with CBC.

Yes it can be due to vaccination given the baby is active, feeding well and no other abnormalities. U can repeat after 5-7days and see for falling trend

Hi. Crp is too high. Better get her admitted for evaluation and treatment. Vaccination usually does not cause this high crp
