While fenugreek seeds are commonly used as a digestive aid, this is partially due to its antibacterial effects, which are also useful for preventing infections on open wounds. Festering can be a very serious condition, aside from the release of pus and the eventual smell, festering can lead to much more serious infections, or even blood poisoning. However, applying a fenugreek paste to a wound that has yet to heal or close can prevent bacteria from entering the wound and spreading their infection, thus preventing festering and speeding up the healing process.
