Macronychia

Macronychia is a disease characterized by an increase in the length of the fingernails or toenails. It can be caused by various factors, such as genetic predisposition, nail injuries, infections, endocrine disorders and other diseases.

Symptoms of macronychia may include changes in the shape and color of the nails, thickening and deformation, and pain when touched. If macronychia lasts for a long time, it can lead to dysfunction of the nails, for example, the inability to do work with your hands or discomfort when walking.

Treatment for macronychia depends on the cause of its occurrence. In some cases, surgery may be required to remove excess nail tissue. Conservative treatments such as medications, physical therapy, and lifestyle changes may also be used.

Prevention of macronychia includes regular hand and foot hygiene, avoiding nail injuries, proper nutrition and health monitoring. If you notice changes in the shape and color of your nails, you should see a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
