What should I do if my baby's nails are layered?

Patient's question:

In the past month, the baby's nails have once again developed layers. What could be the reason for this? What should be digested? Is it because the baby is fed with ad every few days and it's too little? Or is there another reason?

Doctor's answer:

Dear Consultee,
Nail layering, peeling, and fusion in children are most commonly caused by a lack of vitamins or trace elements in the body. Of course, they can also be due to fungal infections or trauma, although the latter two reasons are relatively uncommon. It is recommended to visit the dermatology department of a hospital for a follow-up examination, undergo trace element testing and fungal testing, and receive appropriate treatment based on the specific cause.
