Hi. Thanks for posting your concern at HCM
You seem to be suffering from brittle nails/thinned nails.
The reason might be manicuring causing damage to the nails OR Dietary deficiency.
I advice my patients with brittle and thin nails to take an oral Biotin supplement for 2-3 months. That usually solves the problem.
take care
regards
