Consider cleaning the wound and wrapping the exposed stalk up. Might not be a bad idea to put something on the wound to discourage fungus and other stuff that likes to get a foothold in a wound.

So the branch just died and was rotten inside? Did you inspect inside the stem to see if it was a stem borer?

yeh it was dead and rotten-ish from the base, checked in the stem and didnt find anything, but it looked like a disease or something anyway

Add honey or aloe to wound, both if you got it. Some branches just die off, not sure why but happens pretty often. Mostly large plants. Should be fine after wound dries.

Yes, A bandage is needed.. A layer of beeswax would also help..
Treat plant wounds like human wounds..

Are the limbs on the ground when you discover this? Im thinking you might have an animal or rodent issue. That looks chewed.
