finger nails query
Hi ladies, just wondering if anyone had problems with their nails after chemo? I am 3 weeks after my last chemo and I have stated to notice my finger nails lifting from the skin. They did become quite...

Mine are discoloured near the top and very very brittle, as soon as they grow a bit the edges just chip off.
I have used nail hardener all through,and ice mitts. I did not lose any toenails, and they don't seem to be affected. I am guessing once the discolouration reaches the edge they will be back to normal.
Wear gloves for gardening and washing up and anything that puts strain on your nails/hands. Use a strengthening nail hardener and hand cream to keep the skin supple.
Goodluck
