Default Baby axolotl and hurt arm

Hello, I'm certainly new here as I am with axolotls.
Recently I bought a golden albino, it's still a baby, He is about 6cm
He it is in perfect conditions and I am in love with my baby.

Two weeks after I decided to get another one, cause I have a large tank (80x40x25h) and another one could fit properly. So I bought a wild type, so cute

Now the problem, when she came, she had a broken arm, it was just hanging besides her tiny body (6cm as well). It never looked like it was bothering her, she swims quite well, go up to the surface to grab some air bubbles, and eats a lot! Anyways I was still worried but decided to leave it like that.

But today, when I went to see my little lotls, the broken part of her arm (from the elbow to the tips) felt off. So now I donīt know what really to do, she still seems normal, swimming and eating.

What would you suggest me to do?

And about the gill and the tail, will she regenerate them?

1st and 2nd picture are from her, the 3rd is from both of them <3
