What does a positive TB test look like?

When you take the TB skin test, a huge bump will appear on your arm at the injection site if you have had a TB infection.

During your visit, your doctor or the TB test provider will measure and check the bump to see if you have TB.

Easy to schedule. Very nice staff. Ridiculous wait time- 2 hours Something was going on. No doc available. After nurse ran tests for flu, RSV, Covid and strep, she came back with an iPad. Then I met with a very nice virtual doctor. She was attentive, used high tech instruments to see my throat and listen to my lungs. End result was diagnosis and meds. Strange visit. Had a much more typical visit last time.
