What do you suggest if i had a tb skin test (injection) 3 days ago yet there isn't any reactions (red spots) is that okay?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Negative test: If the test is done properly no bump means that the test is negative. sometimes a second test is done after 2 weeks (like a booster) to rule out a false negative test.
