Hello.
My bird had his toe squished by his cage door
It looks bruised.
I have no idea how to treat it properly and I just realised after a day or so when he kept his feet raised

I recommend taking him to a vet.

At the very least, it looks bruised and, if he is holding it up and not putting weight on it, is painful. A vet will be able to assess whether it's broken or just badly bruised. THey'll also be able to give appropriate pain relief.
