It's paronychia (infection of nail bed). You need incision and drainage for the pus drainage and would need antibiotics. Consult a surgeon.

Looks like staphylococcus infection.. Recent trauma history Will be required whether any iron object was hurt into the nail? After that antibiotics can be prescribed. And tetanus injection need can be seen. Consult online regarding further treatment.
