WHAT COULD CAUSE IT; AND HOW SHOULD I TREAT IT,jON

Answer
Hello Jon,

Could it be that you've been sick recently? Sometimes when we're sick, our nails stop growing, and the nails starts to peel. If you still feel uncomfortable please make an appt with a dermatologist to determine if you have an infection.
