Finger nails

I'm having a terrible time with my nails there flaking and splitting constantly and they have ridges in them

Have you had your Vitamin D level tested, mine was very low, I've been on a prescribed high dose for several months and my nails at least have improved. x

Hi Amethyst69

There a a number of reason why your nails are splitting and have ridges and a usually it is because of some type of vitamin deficiency. I'm not a medical professional so I cannot tell you why your nails are like the way they are only give some friendly advice

As it has already been suggested above going to your GP to discuss this problem is the best way to deal with it. You should be given a blood test to check your vitamin levels, full blood count etc.

I wish you wellness and I hope that you find your answers and treatments soon.

Fluffies and smiles for you

Oh my word, I have a veritable range of mountains on my nails, and thought it was just anno domini creeping on apace, maybe I need to see the lovely Barry.........such a shame to have to see the doctor 💘💘😜

As the others have said, it could be a vitamin deficiency that needs checking out. I want to wish you all the best of luck.

Good luck

Hi,

I would suggest you have your thyroid checked - I had the same problem, but once I was on medication my nails improved again.

It could very well be your vitamins but just a thought. Have you had shellac at all cause that's what it did to mums nails. They're treating them now and she had it ages ago.
