A TB skin test requires two visits with a health care provider.
On the first visit the test is placed; on the second visit, the health care provider reads the test.
The TB skin test is performed by injecting a small amount of fluid (called tuberculin) into the skin on the lower part of the arm. A person given the tuberculin skin test must return within 48 to 72 hours to have a trained health care worker look for a reaction on the arm. The result depends on the size of the raised, hard area or swelling.
