I started biting my nails once I stopped sucking on a pacifier.
After much effort, I stopped that bad habit a few years ago, but unfortunately I acquired a new one - I now pick on my cuticles.
I do it so much that I started affecting the matrix of my thumbs. The nails now grow all wavy.
I am trying to visit a manicurist every 2 weeks, but I am considering to increase the frequency to once a week in order to stop this secondary bad habit.
My question is: will my cuticle grow back and start covering most of my lunula? Will my nails start growing normal again or was this a permanent damage?
Any suggestions to what to do will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
JP
