I recently had a mantoux test, which I had a big reaction to despite having a BCG immunisation.  I am aware of the treatment required for latent TB. My issue is I have had a big psoraisis flare up since, is this related and is the medicated coal tar solution enough for this reaction.
Hi, As you said, You suffer from psoriasis. After manitou test, psoriasis exacerbated. You want to know about relation of Manitou test with exacerbation of psoriasis. Your doubt may be right. Psoriasis, a chronic and autoimmune skin disease may be exacerbated by trauma, surgery and worries. I think, probably your flare up of psoriasis may be due to Manitou test. You consult dermatologist. And have proper Chat Doctor.  Medicated coal tar would irritate the skin, so avoid it. Oral accretion and methotrexate in proper dose may be taken under guidance of dermatologist. I hope you got my answer. Thanks.
