Nail Disorders

There are many things that can go wrong with nails, and we can help evaluate anything from nail fungus, discoloration, ridges, infection, pain, or brittle nails. Nail abnormalities may be a sign of something else, there are some diseases that can cause changes in the nail including psoriasis, diabetes, anemia, lupus, hypothyroidism, and infection.

Let us know if you have any discoloration, changes in shape/thickness, brittle nails, pitted nails, bleeding/swelling/redness/pain, or if your nail is separating from your nailbed.

You should always use proper nail care – never bite or pick at your nails. Always use clean and sharp clippers and trim straight across, rounding the tips gently.
