What are signs and symptoms of a eggshell nail disorder?
An eggshell nail is a noticeably thin white nail plate that is more flexible than normal. Eggshell nails are normally weaker and can curve over the free edge. The condition is usually caused by improper diet, hereditary factors, internal disease or medication. Be very careful when manicuring these nails because they are fragile and can break easily. Use the fine side of an abrasive board (240 grit or higher) to file them gently and remove as little of the nail plate as possible. Don't use heavy pressure with a pusher at the base of the nail plate, because the nail is thinnest here and most likely to be punctured.
