Nail Growth

Hi, I am new to the forum and from South Carolina. I was diagnosed with Dupuytren's Disease less than a year ago and have already developed Ledderhose Disease (I have a pea sized nodule on my right instep) as well. I have knuckle pads on 6 of 10 fingers, a nodule on my right palm and on the reverse of my left index knuckle. No one in my family has ever had this that anyone remembers.

Any who...have any of you ladies with DD found that you cannot grow nails? All of my nails broke and will not regrow at all. This is just on my hands, my toenails seem to suffer no such difficulties.

It's great to meet y'all and I hope to get some insight on this!

Thanks!

Kelly

Re: Nail Growth

Nail growth has not been a problem in my case. Have DC for 8-9 years. Sometimes I have had slower growth nails due to illness or stress. Biotin, Vit D and B vitamins helped since blood test showed low levels.

Re: Nail Growth

I have to say I generally have lovely nails. Ugly fingers with DC and swollen knuckles but beautiful nails!
