Children's toenail invagination is generally a manifestation of calcium deficiency, and zinc deficiency can also lead to toenail depression. In the case of dented nails, both iron deficiency anemia and limb ischemia caused by Raynaud's disease may occur. Of course, it can't be ruled out that it is caused by a lack of certain vitamins. It may also be a genetic problem of parents.

The child's toenail depression may be onychomycosis, also known as onychomycosis. Fingernails will be affected, and toenails will be more affected. Family history, humid environment, malnutrition and low immunity are the susceptible factors, and trauma, especially improper manicure, application of manicure tools and wearing slippers can all infect the disease. People suffering from fungal diseases such as tinea pedis are prone to nail infection and cause diseases. There are many patients with this reason, so when treating onychomycosis, it is also necessary to treat beriberi at the same time. Due to other diseases, nail malnutrition causes nail malnutrition, which reduces the defense ability of the deck against pathogenic fungi and causes onychomycosis (toenail). Long-term exposure to chemical stimuli such as gasoline, paint, detergent and strong alkaline soap will change the pH value and defense ability of normal skin deck surface, leading to onychomycosis. Causes of trauma After nail skin trauma, local resistance and immunity decrease, and it is easy to be invaded by pathogenic fungi, causing onychomycosis, but it is rare in clinic.

Is the situation serious?

If you find that your child's toenails are invaginated, you should go to the hospital for examination and listen to the advice of doctors and nurses.

Suggestion: Take your child to the hospital for trace element examination, determine the cause, carry out corresponding treatment, strengthen nutrition for your child at ordinary times, and eat more fruits and vegetables. Considering the love of parents for their children, if you want your children to have beautiful feet, you can go to the hospital to pull out your toenails and grow them again. I am afraid that onychomycosis is easy to appear in the process of growing toenails, which is normal. Children should mix vegetarian food with balanced nutrition, take more calcium supplements, bask in the sun properly, and go to the hospital for examination so as not to delay treatment. You should take your child to the dermatology department of a regular hospital. It is best to do microscopic examination and culture of fungi first to see if there are any fungi, and then actively treat them under the guidance of a doctor after diagnosis.
