A member asked:
My toenails have a crack on them. horizontal, on both thumbs, which, after growing, a new one appears. the front part of the nail becomes harder and thicker. the lines are always straight?

It is difficult to diagnose toenails without seeing them. This could represent fungal infection or something else. If you remain concerned, see a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment. You could also see a foot doctor. Good luck to you!
