I cut myself shaving 3 days ago. it's now red all around the cut and itchy. it's mostly scabbed over and is not swollen or hot. healing or infection?

Irritation?: 2ndary infection can be a possibility as well since your description is difficult without a physical exam. Any enlargement including pustules, redness, swelling, warm may be a sign of infection otherwise.
