When Should You See a Doctor?
Although brittle nails are usually harmless, medical evaluation is recommended if you notice:
Sudden changes affecting several nails.
Nails separating from the nail bed.
Significant discoloration.
Pain, swelling, or signs of infection.
Persistent nail problems despite proper care.
Brittle nails accompanied by fatigue, hair loss, or unexplained weight changes.
In many cases, treating the underlying cause can gradually restore healthier, stronger nails
