Is an open wound a local infection?

Yes, an open wound (cut, scratch, ect.) is considered a local infection. However, if left untreated, the local infection can turn into a systemic infection, affecting organs and tissues all over. For example, septicemia is considered to be a systemic infection (bacteria and other pathogenic organisms in the blood stream) that can occur from a simple cat scratch or other open wound. To prevent such a horrendous infection, maintain proper sterile technique and wound maintenance so bacteria and other pathogenic organisms cannot infiltrate the wound.

Is the blood real dark? It's possible for that type of wound to break blood vessels internally -- under the skin -- and encapsulate the blood inside. When this happens, eventually the encapsulation breaks and you get bleeding. I'd have to look more to be more certain, but this isn't a surprising turn of events.
