Finger Nails Curling?
Posted: 08-12-03 17:36pm

I've just started to grow my finger nails and they were fine at first but now i've noticed they are curling downwards. A friend told me this may be due to a medical problem but she wasn't sure what it was....Can anyone help

Heya

i know two females who have that problem, but in their cases, its genetic - for one friend, her mom's side is known to have finger nails like that, and in my other friend's case, it is known to happen on her dad's side. Check out your family members' nails (don't make it obvious or they might think you are nuts! Heheh).

I dont know if this helps at all. Smile

I'm not sure, but I think my sister had the same problem. I'm sure you're not alone. And I don't think it's serious.
