  4. My wound has turned bluish. Infection?

My wound has turned bluish

2017-08-06 17:28:28
I got a cut from table fan blades about 2hrs ago....it was a deep cut in with a gaping flesh wound...... I washed it under running water and applied antibiotic ointment followed by closing the wound with a band-aid.....after an hour or so the detached flesh has closed the wound but the area has turned blue...... is that an indication of infection?
