Rectal Swab for AFB

The rectal swab for AFB (acid-fast bacilli) is used to detect tuberculosis (TB) or other mycobacterial infections. During the test, a healthcare provider collects a sample from the rectum using a swab. No special preparation is typically required. The test carries minimal risk, though some discomfort may occur. The sample is sent to a lab for microscopic examination or culture. Positive results suggest an active infection. Factors like recent antibiotic use or contamination could affect results. Post-test, you may be advised to follow up for further diagnosis or treatment based on the findings.
