acute-14 mo old smashed finernail!

hi there, my 14 month old got her finger smashed in a cupboard door yesterday.

It was immediately about 1/2 black/blue underneath. I gave her hypericum 200c and rescue remedy and she went back to playing in about 3 minutes. I also gave her some arnica 200c after about 1/2 hour.

This morning the nail is completely blue/black. She is a bit whiny/clingy today but playing as well.

I'm wondering if I should continue with the hypericum for a few days??? and if so low or high potency?

I read online if more then 1/3 of the nail is black/blue you should see your doctor??? I've not dealt with anything like this before so maybe there is some danger I don't know about??

thank you

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
I think you should not worry too much, for the discoloration of the nail give her APIS 30, thrice a day for 2 days , then stop medicine, and wait for the progress,
this is because of the blood settlment under the nail, and will take few days to go away.
