Doctors for Lichen Planus of The Nails Treatment in Vizag

Lichen planus of the nails is a condition where the body's immune system attacks the nail area, causing the nails to grow slowly or become ridged, thin, brittle, or split. In some people, the nail can even start to lift or disappear over time. It may affect one nail or several, and it can make everyday tasks uncomfortable.

People with lichen planus of the nails may notice symptoms such as nail thinning, longitudinal ridging and painful nail changes. A medical evaluation can help determine the nature and severity of the condition and whether treatment or ongoing monitoring is needed.
