A member asked:
Can eczema also be a cause of potential light nail pitting? and would you be able to feel the pits on a nail by scratching over them, or is it not pitting if you can't?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
usually nail pitting is @psoriaisis. Suggest that you see dermatologist for eval and confirmation of your dx along with the proper tx
