Nail Problems Are Often Overlooked
But in fact, many people find issues with their nails quite bothersome, especially since their hands (and feet in the warm weather) are so visible to others in their daily social interactions.
Discolored, thickened, brittle or rough nails can be caused by fungal or bacterial infections, vitamin deficiencies, aging, underlying medical conditions, trauma to the nails and other causes. It is important to have the cause of your nail problems diagnosed by an expert so that an appropriate treatment regimen can be established.
