I noticed that after i cut myself the healing of the skin takes longer and has a red boarder around it and when it is 95% healed looks red hiv neg?

How long?: Do note that the rate of healing varies from one part of the body to the next with the face healing the fastest and the shin likely the slowest. If your skin heals up well within a 6-week period, it is considered ok. Sun damages and certain medications (anti-cancer drug, cortisone etc) also slow down healing.
