I would treat the injury with IOSAL then spay over that with Propulis. If it is infected You will need to treat with antiboitics. This can be in the form of an injection or a 10 day course of teated food, that You simply feed to the whole pond.
Are You heated or not. If not You will be stuggleing at these temps to bring it under control.
Good luck

p.s if you need antibiotics you should try Darren at www.a4koi.com
