My toenails have become soft, almost like skin . Some of them are partially unattached and i can cut some of them down to the cuticle . but there is no discoloration or any other symptoms...
Dear
welcome to healthcaremagic
In a less common variety of toenail fungus, called white superficial onychomycosis, the nail turns white rather than yellow or brown, and the surface becomes soft, dry and powdery.
Brittle, soft, shiny nails without a moon may indicate an overactive thyroid known as hyperthyroidism.
It can be confirm by concerning your doctor please consult
Thanks
