Service Providers for Tongue Swab for C/S
A tongue swab for C/S (Culture and Sensitivity) is a diagnostic test used to detect infections or abnormal microbial growth on the tongue, often for conditions like fungal or bacterial infections. The procedure involves gently swabbing the surface of the tongue to collect a sample. No special preparation is needed, but avoid eating or drinking before the test. Risks are minimal but may include mild discomfort. Results show the type of microorganism and its sensitivity to antibiotics. Conditions like mouth sores, medications, or antibiotics may affect results. The test helps guide effective treatment options.
