An intradermal test for tuberculin sensitivity is performed by injecting a small amount of purified protein derivative (PPD) tuberculin into the skin on the forearm. The injection site is then checked for a reaction after 48-72 hours. A positive reaction, indicated by a firm, raised bump, suggests that the individual has been exposed to the bacteria that cause tuberculosis.
