I Have Chemo Nails, Which Means They’re Discolored, And Two Fingernails Have Lifted Off Of The Nail Bed. Any Advice
Thank you so much!
If the nails are lifting, wear bandaids- with the gauze side against the nail. It will help protect them from getting snagged, etc. It is possible you may lose some nails, but maybe- not. Just baby them! Use gloves for doing any chores, no prying of anything (think soda tabs, etc). Keeping them trimmed short also helps with this. The good news is fingernails grow pretty fast, so hopefully, you will soon see an improvement at the base. Good luck!
