Welcome to GF. There's not much to do besides make sure the gecko is not on a particle substrate (like sand) and keep it clean. It's likely that the tail tip will get brittle and black and fall off. This is not a problem. The tail tip should regenerate.

I have moved your post to the correct section. Please pay attention to what sub forum you're posting in.

How do i keep it clean do i just not touch it and leave it be

that's right. As long as there isn't sand or dirt that will get into the wound, just leave it alone and let nature take its course.
