Tine is a multiple puncture and rarely used any more. The Mantoux test is a single needle prick. 48-72 hours afterwards, the injection site should be free of inflammation. If not, then odds are you have been exposed to TB. A positive result does not mean you have active TB, it just requires follow-up, i.e. a chest x-ray.
