What Causes Elevated CRP Levels?

hi my crp level came back high but all other blood work was normal. I have been having night sweats, back,bone and joint pain, fatigue, bloating. Not sure if related but skin has been itchy as well. Is it likely this could be cancer or auto immune or simply some type of infection.
