To promote the healing of an nail, it is important to keep the area clean with water and gentle soap, and to moisturize regularly with a fragrance-free cream like Aveeno or Glaxal Base. Supplements may only help if there is a deficiency, which can be detected through a blood test. You can also mark the tip of the nail with a pen to track its growth progress week by week. If there is no improvement, it is advised to consult with a doctor to rule out other potential causes.
