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. This hump, which may appear red and bloated, indicates that you have tuberculosis germs in your body. During your visit, your doctor or the TB test provider will measure and check the bump to see if you have TB.

An outstanding practice - in every way. Greeted when I walked in with an appointment. Helder Rebelo PA is an amazing practitioner. I've been in his care for over 20 some years. His staff is professional, courteous and wonderful. I would never think of going anywhere else when it comes to my primary health care. Am well into my 60's and no way would I go anywhere else for my first line of advice.

I went there this past Saturday with sinus infection, congestion. I saw Dr.Oluwakemi Oreofe Ajibade and she was amazing. She did her due diligence read my file, noticed I have had this re-occurring issue ( this is third or fourth time this happened) suggested that I see specialist, provided a referral as well as medication. She tested me for flu, and Covid and just was spot on. She explained everything and was just wonderful.
