Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems that due to traumatic injury caused by nail there has been tear of mucosa leading to formation of a painful traumatic ulcer..
Due to inflammation there is pain..
I would suggest you to start applying a numbing gel containing Lignocaine or Choline Salicylate to relieve pain..
You can apply steroid ointment containing Kenacort or Triamcinolone Acetonide to reduce inflammation..
You can take anti-inflammatory painkiller like Ibuprofen..
You can also take Vitamin B complex daily..
Suck ice popsicles or do cool water rinses..
Avoid hard and spicy food to prevent further irritation and injury..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
