Weak nails
I just completed 48 weeks of treatment about 2 months ago, and have noticed that my nails are still extreemly soft and weak. They are also growing a weird shape. Pior to treatment, I had very strong, shapely nails. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this and if you know a way to help strengthen them. Thank you for your help and support! Just being able to come to this site during and after treatment has been a huge help.
Only my thunb nails are still affected. The sides are hard but the centers are weak and wear straight across. All my other nails are strong over a year post TX.
