Toe fungus to nail under nail

So, I have had a fungus on my left big toe for a while (about a year) , and just left it. Recently it cracked and the left side of the nail became unattached. I cut this part of the nail off. Antiseptic wiped it and am now using fungus remover.

However there seems to be a separate nail growing ( half my toe nail had been cut off ) , and it looks like it's growing into the nail bed. What should I do?

( also point to add, I would go to a podiatrist but my financial situation is not the best , and I don't know if the NHS covers them , I'm quite worried and can attach a picture of my toe if it provides more details )
