fingernails grow fast

Not true. My hair grew insanely fast and I had a girl. I had to get my roots touched up more than usual. It's normal for hair growth to increase.

Not sure where this question fits in - I have an 8 year old whose fingernails and toenails don't grow. I think I've had to cut them maybe three times his whole life. Everything else grows normally - his hair, his body (he's tall for his age)...Not sure if this is something to worry about. Thanks for any input.

Anyone have terrible fingernails with their VDD? I ask because for the past few years my nails have been very blah, the minute they start to grow they just split and peel. Now, I have noticed being on the VD for the past few weeks/months my nails finally seem to be growing slowly and not splitting or peeling, yet anyhow.

I'm a 50 year old woman and my fingernails have begun to curl as they get longer?

The second possibility would be the finger having been hit and sustaining some damage that causes the nail to grow looking different. Next set of suggestions is along the lines of a zinc deficiency. Though the way a zinc shortage appears in the nails more often is ridging or flaking, they can also apparently come out orange. You could try increasing your zinc intake. (If you take a supplement, don't go wild and take too much; just one a day.

I knew about the thinning hair, which I am experiencing to a much, MUCH worse degree than I expected (but hey, it's summer!! ) But I have never read anything about tx affecting your fingernails. It only makes sense, as they are both made of the same thing - but has anyone else had this problem? Mine are awful! They are like paper, thin, peeling, and constantly ripping, even though they are cut completely short.

This is so frustrating! I can't grow my fingernails out at all, because when I do, parts of my fingernails 'droop' over the tip of my fingers. It's not the entire nail -not like a club nail- it's just parts of the nail. Parts of the nail are straight while other parts of the same nail 'droop.' The mail becomes 'wavy.' Almost as if parts of the nail are stronger than the rest of the nail. All of my fingernails are like this.

Your metabolism will slow on it's own as you age. So be happy that you have a fast metabolism now as it'll be helpful later on. I have a fast metabolism, too. And now at age 21, it's slowed.

It's so true. I can not believe my baby girl will be 1 in two months its unreal how fast it goes by.

m sure about that, but they definately make my fingernails grow faster and they are more strong than they used to be.

but i noticed white stripes going across my toenails - 7 of 10 of them BUT my fingernails are just fine - anyone ever see this before? i am kind of thinking it is a sx of the pegasys, copegus - anyone have any clues???

This question is one I have not been able to find any answers to using general search engines. My fingernails are pretty normal looking in that they are a healthy fleshy pink shade and have always been very strong and resistant to breakage. However, I notice that when my nails grow to a certain length, the white tips turn completely transparent.

fingernails chemo you will find several posts on this subject. Sorry I couldn't help, but I wanted to say Hi. Haven't seen much of you lately and I hope you are doing okay in spite of the fingernail thing.

Ive seen it with kids who bit their fingernails like they bite them too short so the skin just grows in front of it. But ive never seen it on newborn toenails.

Mine feels like a whole bunch of little bubbles popping inside me.

How quickly would a genital wart grow from the first sign of it appearing? I have read that they continue to grow and if a bump that suddenly appears stays the same size, it is probably not a wart. Thanks.

About 10 years ago I went to the nail salon and added nail tips to my fingernails. A week later I went back to remove them. Soon after removing the nail tips, I started noticing my nails on my thumbs started to change colors. I went to the dermatologist and they prescribed Penlac to treat the nail fungus. After using Penlac for a while I noticed that it was not working for me. After that, I went back to the dermatologist and they did a culture and they said it was a fungus.

You could use a nail polish to cover it up, sometimes as the nail starts to grow the streak tends to grow with it and finally would disappear. Just don’t worry, try to relax. If it persists even after a month or two then meet a dermatologist for further management.

I have been noted to have domed fingernails but not apparently 'clubbed' They have been like this as long as I can remember What might cause domed nails but not clubbed. ???

The doctor says my thyroid hormone levels fluctuates as do my symptoms. My fingernails are the worst and I am so very tired and weak. They are very soft and thin with ridges. I thought the synthyroid was supposed to help with these issues. Am I wrong and is something else going wrong This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/263637'>Fingernails indicative of thyroid problems?</a>.
