Leopard gecko toe

[Abbison28]

So my leopard gecko, Rico shed and got skin on his toes, I got it all of except on 1. When I tried peeling the skin off it started bleeding so I left it. The next day I tried to get it off, the toe was darker(I'm pretty sure the circulation was cut off) I tried to peel the skin of it bleed again, but I think I got all the skin of but the tip of the toe looks like it is half off. It is just the tip of the toe, not the whole toe, (I got skin off the whole toe except the tip)
I heard it doesn't really affect them that much, I'm keeping it clean, but the whole tip isn't falling off, it might heal but I don't know...
Is there anything I should do?
Thank you so much!

She shouldn't have issues shedding. What is her setup like? How are you supplementing her?

Also, never just peel shed off. That's very painful for them, especially if it bleeds. How would you like someone pulling your skin off? Either soak her in warm water or put her in a container with warm, wet paper towels for a good 15 minutes and let the skin soften, then try to gently remove it by rolling it with a Q-tip.

Well he hasn't eaten(real food) in a long time cause of eye issues, but I do give him this powdered food mixed into the water, so he doesn't lose to much weight.
Thank you! I will try that next time...

Oh wow. Your gecko needs to see a vet now if you want it to have any chance of surviving. Not only does it have stuck shed, but it's also infected. How would you feel if you couldn't see, were very sick, couldn't eat on your own, and no one bothered to take you to get medicine? Borrow money from someone, sell some stuff, do whatever you have to in order to get your gecko to a vet. It's your pet and your responsibility, so you need to do the responsible thing and get it the help it needs.

Also, your setup is no good. Please read over this care sheet: http://www.geckosunlimited.com/comm...-demo-video-4-jan-2013-update.html#post302242 You really need to make some changes.
