Is this normal for a gardening cut?

It is three days old, I’m in late 40s.

I didn’t apply antiseptic as I usually ignore gardening cuts. It is near the knuckle (maybe that’s where the expression comes from!)

Just wondered if it is infected in a way that needs treatment.

That's good.

It is also good for mosquito bites, put a blob on the bite and cover and it draws the poison out and stops the itching. It is fantastic stuff.

I used it on the horses especially if they had been bitten by the bastard horse fly and humans for any cuts , bites, splinters , and spots . Take care on spots though i have know people to have a bad reaction for some reason , even though they were fine with it on bites and splinters,
Generally you only need to apply it once or twice as long as you keep the area covered and dry, leave it on for as long as possible ( a day or so ideally )
