Is it just: Bruised or is it infected that's what you need to differentiate. If just bruised, time will heal it.

Ingrown toe nail was traumatically removed by a nail technician which lead to infection and blot blister underneath the nail - the nail covering the blister died out a few weeks later and was cut. Now theres a dried blood blister, will that go away?
