Answers:
It just has to grow out.

If there is anything in the hole, it might be worth washing it with tea tree oil, eucaliptys oil, antibacterial wash of some sort.

Keeping a bandaid on it during the day will help keep gross things out, but let it air at night so as not to make it too soggy.

Hopefully as it grows, the skin underneath will grow back some. While your nails are 'technically' dead growing out, the nail bed underneath isnt, and it should heal up.Health Question & Answer

it will likely the nail will fall off or take a while to grow out till it gets to the end keep it clean and add some neosporine on it put a bandaid on it oh if it does fall off it should grow back
