Stepped on tail- it's turning BLACK?

Hi, I have a pretty healthy bearded dragon, about 5 years old. Today I left him on the ground in the sunlight and my dad walked by and accidentally stepped on the end of his tail. He had his work boots on.
It's slowly starting to turn black and I don't know why.
Because it was stepped on, is his tail going to rot and fall off??
If you know what I should do please comment on this post.

It's a bit hard to see but if you look closely you can kind of see it.

Here are some more recent pictures.
I talked with my mom and we decided that if the black spreads we would take him to a vet but we don't know what to do in the meantime.. Anyone have advice? Will it eventually fall off?
