If a TB test is injected too deep can it have a rash like effect on distal extremities ?

No rash is present on the injection site

No, the tuberculin, even if injected to deep, will not cause a rash farther down the arm, even if you do have TB.

If there is no reaction at the injection site than you are negative, but go back and have it read.

Best Wishes,
