May 1, 201016 yr I did a google search. This article seems to address your question in the first few paragraphs. Check it out:http://www.ccjm.org/content/70/1/49.full.pdf+htmlHope this helps.
May 1, 201016 yr Author Sorry, I meant to say that it was 20 mm length. I just got my second test done this afternoon and several hours later, where the test was administered began to itch a little. And soon after the itching stopped, I developed this lump that feels like it's more in the layers of my skin, rather than something on top of my skin (like how a blister would feel).I volunteer at the hospital tomorrow morning. Should I have someone look at it then or wait the 48 to 72 hours?
May 1, 201016 yr Wait the 48 to 72 hours. I just went through the certification class at my hospital and you could be having a skin reaction.
May 2, 201016 yr I agree wait the 48 to 72 hrs....and do not itch it, rub it or anything else that could irritate it.
May 2, 201016 yr Author As of about 36 hours later, it has quadrupled in size. There is a center within the raised area that is also raised.
First test was negative, zero reaction.
Results of second test:
