Doctors for Onychorrhexis Treatment in Bengaluru

Onychorrhexis is a condition where fingernails or toenails become dry, brittle, and start splitting or cracking lengthwise. The nails may look ridged, rough, and weak, and they can break more easily than normal. It can happen from aging, repeated wetting and drying, or a nail injury.

Onychorrhexis may cause symptoms such as cosmetic nail changes, slow nail growth and longitudinal nail ridging. Depending on the condition and its severity, delayed medical care may result in persistent symptoms, progression of the disease, or related complications.
