My Finger Nails Split And Grooved, Then My Skull Is Also Grooved Around The Temporals And Above Ears ??Typical Outcome Query.
A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

My Dexa was -.3 and I dont know the significance of that. I had 3 wedge compound fractures which was the initiator for the scan...I have regular shoulder neck and back pain. I dont trust my knees either. But I cope without analgesia, except for 10mgs Amitrip if its bad when Its bed time.
Any suggestions taken on board. Thanks.

My thyroid was tested and the results were normal. However nails were breaking so I take marine collagen tablets and now have strong quick growing nails and hair too!

Helen, I started the collagen 10 days ago and thought my imagination was going nuts as my hair needs a trim after a month instead of 6 weeks! πŸ˜€

I use collagen and it has done wonders for my hair and nails.

Hi Shirley. First, do you have Thyroid issues? I had the ridges across my nails, some were quite deep. My osteoporosis was caused by my Thyroid failing and the parathyroids taking calcium from my spine. I had a total Thyroidectomy in September. Since then my nails are growing out good as new, no more ridges or splitting. Don’t have issues with my skull though. Maybe see an Endocrinologist for full tests on your Thyroid. Good luck and Happy New Year. 🎊
