My baby is nail-detaching. Is he lack of calcium, zinc, iron, or everything?
If it occurs after the following situation, then it is not, no need to make up!
It’s nail removal after hand–foot–and–mouth disease.
Hand-foot-and-mouth disease has been prevalent with very long hair. In the past, hand-foot-and-mouth disease, which was dominated by Coxsackie virus A16 type, was rare in the form of nail-detaching.
In recent years, the new type of hand-foot-and-mouth disease (atypical hand, foot and mouth) dominated by Coxsackie virus A6, etc., has more, larger, and wider skin rashes, and often suffers from post-ill nail-detaching.
Because nail-detaching occurs within 1 to 2 months after hand-foot-and-mouth disease, most of the babies are in a healthy state at this time, so many parents will think that it is caused by lack of something, leading to anxiety and blindly supplementing.
But in fact, this is still a manifestation of hand-foot-and-mouth disease. This kind of new epidemic enterovirus will lead to temporary growth stagnation of armour parent material when infected. When the disease recovers, the nail matrix starts to grow again. The stagnant nail will break after being pushed out, and then there will be nail removal.
But don’t worry, because new nails will grow back in a few months. At this stage, only part protection is needed.
