What nutrients is the child lacking when the skin on their nails peels and has pits?

Patient's question:

The child initially experienced peeling of the fingertips and palms. After taking vitamin C tablets and applying vitamin C skincare lotion for a week, it improved. Now, pits have appeared on the nails, and there are vertical ridges. What nutrient is the child lacking?

Doctor's answer:

You are also very serious, and you observe your child very carefully. You notice such small details, which shows that you are a very caring parent. As long as your child doesn’t lack meat and eats everything,,,,, should never lack anything. As for the winter skin being a bit dry and some peeling, it is also a normal phenomenon, nothing to worry about.
