What Is The Remedy For The Infection Under The Toe With Swelling And Bruising?

My toe got stepped on during one of my soccer games and something underneath the toe started to swell and bruise. and it got infected, so it slowly got looser and so today i squeezed all the puss out of it and it got to the point where i could pull it off. so i did, and now all i can see is what is underneath my toe nail and it s very bloody. what should i do to protect it?
