Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Suggest Remedy For Chronic Thickening Of Skin Under The Nails
The skin around my fingers is problematic. Under one nail there is a thick callous I ve trimmed it back but it keeps growing back. On a pointer finger the callous is growing more on the side of the finger and appears to pull the skin away from the nail. When delicately trimming back these callouses I have seen tiny dark specks like wart seeds. What can I do to get rid of this rough skin.
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that generally thick skin around nails is a dead skin which needs time to time trimming. You can go for regular manicure and pedicures.
Hopefully this information will guide you properly.
Kind Regards Dr Bhanu Partap
