Um... go see a doctor if it's been "several weeks". Staph is nasty and wayyyyy more common than people think. If it stays open, you can end up with an infiltrate... a nasty ass pocket of necrotic flesh up underneath. NOT that I think that's what is happening... just what could. It may be as simple as an antibiotic cream or it could be nothing. But something that stays open and gets smeared with alcohol, etc, you could kill the new skin cells trying to heal. At least that's what happened with Kiddo. I'm extremely paranoid after seeing his arm. Better safe than sorry, but not usually dead.
