I noticed a month ago a fingernail on each hand of my four-year old child corroding and breaking at the cuticle and and loosening. The cuticle where the breakage is looks white. The nails otherwise look normal in color. They will fall off soon. Now I see the same thing happening to a big toe nail. What could this signify? Thanks.
