Nothing. Your nail(s) may eventually fall off due to the pressure that was exerted on the nailbed during your walk. This is common in hiking, and particularly on steep downhill slopes.
This is one reason why I recommend hikers to cut their toenails and cinch up their boots when descending steep slopes. Also, to ensure they have proper fitting footwear and appropriate socks. So, just be patient and see what happens.
