What do you do for an exposed nail bed?

So when I was 6 or 7, my older brother ripped off my nail. It never grew back right. I'm sure it got a fungal infection and it was that way for a long time. My aunt said to put tea tree oil on it and I tried that. It softened the nail to the point that it came off. I want it to heal right this time. What should I do?What do you do for an exposed nail bed?
Sometimes nails grow back as good as new, and sometimes the nail bed gets damaged and they grow back oddly formed or not at all. There isn't a lot you can do but keep your toe protected, clean and dry. But if you still have a fungal infection see a dermatologist for advice.
