Regarding TB skin test

2017-03-21 11:24:34
I had TB Skin test on 18th of this month. After 2 days, some part of the injected area (i.e nearly 1 cm ) turned somewhat red and lightly bulged and it was itching also. But my test result came as negative. I am not sure about the results and i am worried. Could you please clarify me
