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.

tuberculosis testing available are a skin test and a blood test.

Your employer or doctor may prescribe a TB test more regularly than every four years based on specific work policies or your symptoms and health status.

How much does a TB test cost in Lombard?

A tuberculosis test's cost is determined by a number of factors, including the test's kind, provider rates, geographic location, and whether or not the test is covered by your health insurance plan.

Some companies may reimburse the cost of tuberculosis testing if it is required at work. Contact your health insurance provider directly to learn more about your TB test benefits and coverage.

How often do you need a TB test in Lombard?

Employers often screen employees who are required to get tested for tuberculosis every four years.
