The doctor told me to only to use clear polish on my nails. I did that on my hands but put nothing on my feet. I got a big black mark under one big toe nail that is slowly growing out.

I put Mavala Nailactan on my nails to hydrate and moisturize them as they were very dry and splitting at the ends. Seems to be working well.

I found that ordinary cuticle oil really helped nails to recover from the dryness and splitting.

I used tea tree oil on both my toenails and fingernails. Seems to have kept them from coming off during weekly Taxol treatments.
