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.

I've been here twice, and I was so impressed with the way that this staff took great care of me. Juan is so helpful and good at what he does, and Dr.Godinez's explanation of symptoms and sincere help to answer all my medical concerns. I just had to leave a review for them that is awesome. I am in no hurry to return but if anything does happen, they will be my first call.
