Normal results: Both your CRP results were normal & slight change within normal limits is also normal as is your ESR. There does not need to be cause because both test are normal. Nowadays, we tend to orer just CRP without ESR as it is probably more accurate measure of inflammation, easier to perform & both usually move in tandem.
