  1. skin test

    A skin test is a type of medical examination where a small amount of a suspected allergen or substance is applied or injected into the skin to check for a reaction. It is typically used to diagnose conditions such as allergies, tuberculosis, or fungal infections. The test is based on the body's immune response; if the body has been sensitized to a specific substance, the skin will react by developing redness, swelling or hives at the site of the test.
