To Polish Nail or Not to Polish Nails???

I had a fall about a month ago and as I hit the ground, caught myself with my hands.

I damaged one thumbnail badly, pulled it all the way back to 1/2 down the nail bed and took one corner completely out to 1/2 way down. It looks atrocious. The rest of my nails are all in beautiful condition. So, should I cut them all off and not polish them at all?

Polish remaining 9 nails and leave the bad one alone? Keep the bad, UGLY one covered with a band-aid?

I seriously am bothered by this. When interacting with people, hands are one of the first things noticed.
