We report a 9-month boy presenting with scattered papules across the whole body 7 weeks after receiving a BCG vaccination on his left brachium. A biopsy taken from the scattered papule showed epithelioid cell granuloma, and no mycobacteria in Ziehl-Neelsen staining. We diagnosed him with papular tuberculid. All skin lesions were restored without scarring by the treatment with topical steroid and taking antihistamine.
