Question

What is the cause of children’s fingernails peeling off and falling off?

Answer

Hello friend, based on your description, I’m not sure if the baby’s nail has been injured or damaged. Generally, if there has been an injury to the nail, it may fall off. Periungual inflammation may also cause the baby’s nails to fall off. I suggest you take your child to the hospital for a check-up. Hello, this condition may be due to a lack of trace elements. You can take your child to the hospital to check for trace elements. It is most likely related to deficiencies in protein, calcium, sulfur, zinc, and vitamins A, B, and C. Eating more fruits and vegetables, consuming foods high in calcium, ensuring a well-balanced diet, and maintaining nutrition are recommended.
