A member asked:
Doctor, after using nail polish one of my friend got white cracking spot on her nails...so what should she do now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a doctor: Some nail procedures use a file to smooth the nail before applying the nail polish, gel, or acrylic. This can make the nail prone to breakage. There are other things that could be wrong too, and only an exam by a doctor would lead to a diagnosis. Good luck.
