Pulled out toe nail, should I be worried?

[Theveiled]

I noticed this morning while holding Stark that one of his toe nails on his front right foot is gone completely. There is a small hole where I assume it was. The toe nail there was longer because I think it may have gotten pulled another time on the screen. Should I clean it? Could it possibly get infected? Im not really sure what to do if I have to do anything at all.
Any advice is appreciated!
Thanks!
Oh and it seems like it dosent bother him. He has been climbing well even though he only has one other toe nail on that side of his foot.

I don't know, id clean the wound just in case

If the nail bed wasn't damaged it will grow back. I don't know what the chances are of it being damaged if the nail was pull all the way out. If I had to take a guess I would say its probably damaged.

If it's an open wound I think you should clean it and you should probably apply a disinfectant and keep a good eye on how it heals...
I don't know what brands disinfectants are commonly used in the USA on reptiles so maybe someone that does know can chip in.
(Here Betadine is often used for small wounds and cuts, but I don't know if that's best or if it's available in the US.)

I do have betadine. Should I use that?

Should I use betadine? Or somewhere I saw you could use polysporin (not sure if it is right). I also have peroxide. I just dont want it to get infected and have to go to the vet again. What are signs of infection though?

If it is water based yes...she gave me something else that was prescription. I've heard to stay away from petroleum based products.

Both of the ones I have contain petroleum. Do you know one I can ge over the counter that is water based?
