CRP stands for C-reactive protein. It is a blood marker that rises when there is inflammation somewhere in the body. CRP is commonly used in emergency care, primary care, rheumatology, and orthopedics. In hip and joint care, it often helps clinicians evaluate possible infection or inflammatory disease.
