A member asked:
Can you tell me about solutions for splitting nails?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on cause: There are several causes of splitting nails, including repetitive micro-trauma, brittle nails, nail fungus and skin conditions such as psoriasis. Treating the cause of the splitting nail is important to help make them better. There is a product called "hard as nails" that can help strengthen your nails against breakage. See a dermatologist for further evaluation.
