Before getting my acrylic nails done (which has been for years) & you could see my natural nails....they always peeled, had funky curves to them & were weak.

The peeling took place at the end of them tho not the cutical area.

It could very well be diet/vitamin deficiency.....is it possibly dryness?

Maybe a calcium or some other vitamin deficiency? My husband has to take lots of extra because his body doesn't absorb it. He can notice a difference in his nails if he isn't getting enough nutrition. I would call the clinic and talk to them about checking it out.

Mine peel a bit from the sides and top, but never from the base of the cuticle. My first thought was that maybe he picked up some kind of fungus??? If they're peeling totally off, I agree with Lisa that it might be worth talking to the doc about.

I did put a call into the clinic to see what they thought. the nurse said she will give the info to the Dr. and as soon as she gets a response back she will let me know.

Wonder if maybe he did pick up some sort of fungus or something from vacation. Maybe from one of the pools or hot tub thingy.

I was wondering if it could be vitamins! We will see what the doc says.

Oh and no he really hasn't been sick just the normal sinus issues.

Thanks for responding!

I just remembered he did have Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease in May and it was really horrible. His hands have little scars all over the tops and his palms still have areas that are peeling. Maybe that has something to do with it?
