Why would my daughters finger nails and toe nails keep coming off, peeling right off.?

She is 4 years old.Why would my daughters finger nails and toe nails keep coming off, peeling right off.?
The nail is important in protecting the sensitive nerve-endings, and this needs to be addressed with a doctor in order to help her develop normally.





Possible causes:


1. Fungal infection.


2. Nervous system disorder.


3. Nutritional deficiency.


4. Mineral deficiency.


5. Genetics.


6. Compulsive behavior (Tourette's - no, not as in swearing; most people with Tourette's compulsively pick at some part of the body)


7. Defect in the nailbed or nail matrix.





Start with a pediatrician and have him or her refer you to a good dermatologist.Why would my daughters finger nails and toe nails keep coming off, peeling right off.?
not enough milk drinking ? some kind of calcium deficiency ? are there other problems ? like with hair or teeth ?
Sorry to be the one to suggest it, really, but -- self injury?
Desease... or maybe just very soft nail. You might want to take that up with her Doctor
Poor nutrition for sure.





Possibly a hygiene realted issue as well.





HELLO, GO TO A DOCTOR!
It could be a calcium deficiency, or even a fungal infection. I would suggest you take here to the doctor, he can runs test to see what it is. Besides, it can be a symptom of something more serious, not that a calcium deficiency isn't serious, just that there are alot of diseases out there that I don't even know.
well i dont really know but have u gone to the docter and see what he said well if u didnt go to the docters Ok ok
I saw someone ask this question on tv like on a news show and they said it is because you don't get enough protien bc thats what your nails are made of
