Agreed. But I would wonder if the high sugar content might suck things (by osmosis) out of the plant tissue, especially water. Dunno, and certainly worth a try.
I had a friend who spilled a pot of boiling water on his bare foot and was severely burned. His body is very sensitive to chemicals and at the time, he didn't have health insurance, and didn't go to the doctor. I am not sure where he got the idea, but he spread honey all over his foot. It healed remarkably fast, he said.
