Cold cough

Hi, I am having a cold cough since yesterday evening with a body pain. Like moderate level cold cough.

Right sideThrobbing headache constantly

Since waking up yesterday morning, he is having a pain starting from the back of his right eye and extending to the right side of his head (as marked in the picture with green). It's a throbbing pain, sometimes the intensity is high, but mostly low. Yesterday night, he had a Grenil and the pain had subsided. But since today morning, the pain has returned, although the intensity of the pain behind the eyes is much lesser, and now the pain is mostly on the right side of the head (same area as yesterday). Same throbbing pain with varying intensity. No vision issues, or any other issues. Never had this kind of pain or even migraine before.

High hs CRP value

Hello Doctor, My check-up on today showed a significantly elevated hs-CRP of 35.50 mg/L. I would appreciate your advice on the possible cause and further investigations. I underwent root canal treatment last week and took antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medication for 3 days. My blood sample was collected approximately one week later. I also had a small lip wound, which is healing. I have no fever or chills but experience morning sneezing. Other important results: • LDL: 129, HDL: 35, total cholesterol: 177, triglycerides: 76 mg/dL • HbA1c: 5.5%; fasting glucose: 92 mg/dL • Haemoglobin: 14.6 g/dL; WBC: 8.80 • Creatinine: 0.94 mg/dL; ALT: 35 U/L I also have persistent calf pain that started before my recent air travel. A doctor examined me today and felt it was not concerning. Could the elevated hs-CRP be related to the dental treatment or lip wound? Would you recommend repeating CRP or conducting further investigations?
