[|Human|] my mantaux skin test report is positive, erythema 16mm induration 14mm..my chest xray report done today says both perihilar and lower zones show bronchovascular prominences. The hila, medial aspects of lower zone of right side, are congested. Costophrenic angles appear clear. Domes of diaphragm are regular. Cardio-thoracic ratio is normal. I am 24 years old male. My weight and height are respectively 60kg and 5ft 3inches. I am suffering from cold for 3days after staying wet for considerable amount of time and have been taking medication for that. Otherwise I am healthy. So, should I worry about my mantaux report??
[|AI|]  Hello, thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. If I am your doctor I suggest you that manitou test is not a diagnostic test. It is a prognostic test. It s positivity indicates that you are allergic to tuberculin protein. Furthermore, it does not mean you have tuberculosis. Furthermore, it is positive of other conditions also. But you should be investigated for sputum for ZN stain. If you want to know anything else you can contact me. Thank you. Chat Doctor. Infectious disease specialist.
