I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. A skin test (also called a mantoux test) is an injection of a tiny amount of tuberculin extract under the skin of your forearm. If you have been exposed to tb bacteria in the past, your skin can become raised and red, which can mean a positive result. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
