My finger got caught in the door nail bed damaged, how long will it take to heal and how to prevent infection?

I got my finger caught in a heavy door, when i got it the skin of my cuticle was broken and the emergency woorker that bandaged my finger said that i was probaly gonna lose the entire nail. This just happened today, i put peroxide and neosporin on it and then bandaged it with guaze and a band-aid. What else can i do to prevent it from getting infected and how long will it take to heal?My finger got caught in the door nail bed damaged, how long will it take to heal and how to prevent infection?
Yeah, when I did this the nail fell off. the flesh under the nail turned areally dark purple colour, and after that the nail started to fall off.


It took over a month to grow back, but the skin toughened, so it didn't get infected.


I would make sure to keep it covered with clean bandages, and it should be fine.
