Honey is a great healer.
When I was 5, we were stopped on the roadside (family moved from s.a to QLD) and I stood on a broken bottle which sliced thro my tendon at the back of my ankle. Mum slathered honey on it and strapped it. I have no issue with it at all.
Let's not get carried away here. If a wound is deep with the possibility of damage to underlying structures like tendons, it should be assessed by a doctor. It's hard to comment on what might have been damaged on Becboo's ankle and tendons do heal if rested, but that is much less likely if they are "sliced thro".
Appropriate first aid would be to cover the wound with a non adherent dressing and apply pressure via a bandage to prevent bleeding. As mentioned above, if it's more than trivial then it should be seen by a doctor. You don't need to apply antiseptic to a wound like this and as a doctor I would much prefer to examine a wound that is not gummed up with honey or antiseptic creams.
I'm not knocking honey, but I don't want people to apply inappropriate first aid because they read it here. (A bit like learning your recovery techniques from Colorado ads.)
