Common Questions and Answers about What makes fingernails grow
nail
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.
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.
Has anyone else on infergen or peg, noticed nails seem to grow faster? I also have this feeling like there is something under my nails, but there isn't. I keep picking at them.
Also there is this sensative feeling, not sure how to describe it on my hands.
I have picked up this nervous habit of running fingers over nails!
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.
Even if the skin on the fingertips or under the fingernails were damaged/cut what makes it so improbable for it to contract hpv/hsv/stds with applied extreme pressure to the toy shaft? What makes the damaged skin under the fingernails and fingertips so different from genital skin?
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.
Hey, stranger. Where have you been hiding? Sorry about the fingernail thing. I guess i was lucky. That was one side effect i didn't have. The only one I think. If you go up to the search box and put in: 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.
Does anyone know what causes exteme fingertip sensitivity in a child? My son who is nine has been experincing this for several years now. When we trim his nails, he screams and cries and then cannot touch anything. We do this at bedtime so he can go to sleep but when he wakes up he constantly puts his fingertips in his mouth to wet them.
He/she probably wanted to see if you had any shaking.
does anyone know what can cause the reddish blue half moon on all of my fingers? they seem to be worse on my thumbs. thanks.
Yes! I just chopped off my long hair, and it's already starting to grow a lot. Plus, I find myself needing to shave my legs/underarms more... Often I'm too lazy to do it, though.
10, I had 2 months of preauricular swollen nodes that developed in the setting of severe bumps while I attempted to grow a beard. Lymphadenopathy has resolved. I also developed horizontal ridges in all 10 fingernails at the same time and that lasted 2 1/2 months, until the nails grew out. In the past 2 1/2 months, I have also developed brown arcs at the tip of my fingernails and toenails.
Vegetables are very important! Especially dark green leafy vegetables and broccoli. If you're not eating your vegetables, you likely have a nutritional deficiency. It's good you're addressing it now, though, because as you age, this becomes more and more important. You're about to enter puberty, so these vegetables are even more important when you start menstruating.
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.
1) When putting on the Extra Safe Durex condom, she uses her long fingernails just for a brief moment. When I notice it, I decided to put it on myself, with the same condom. The she gave me a brief bj. i dont think her teeth touch the condom. My concern is whether she punctured the condom with her fingernails or teeth. We had vaginal sex for about 5-10 mins until I ejaculate (on and off, not nonstop) inside the condom. The sex did get rough for about 2 minutes.
