Why don’t we use Boracic lint (Skint??) Anymore? And what does it even do?

I’ve been using it for years and it always seems to work to draw out infection (cuts and scrapes, or ingrown toenails) but don’t understand it at all.

Is that [drawing salve](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salve)? It is used to “draw” infection out of a boil or help remove spliters. It help sooth irritation on the skin.
