Rash Under Shin, Looks Like Dry Skin. Appeared On Next Day After Mantoux Test. Side Effect?
I have the Mantoux test done yesterday and I have got a rash on the right hand side under my chin area, it was small last night but seems to have grown. It isn't very red seems like dry skin (ive moisturised with non perfumed moisturiser and no progress) but seems very coincidentle it is the day after having the test. Is this a side effect?

It can be a mild reaction to the test.
