CRP is a nonspecific test that shows infection or inflammation. It doesn’t give a diagnosis or mean you have anything dangerous.Without seeing the rest of the lab work, it is hard to comment further.You may have a virus as many viruses take longer to go away.Mono is one of those;hopefully you were tested for that.Otherwise rest, drink fluid, take acetaminophen for pain & followup with your doctor.
