The condition typically leads to weak and easily breakable nails, which may cause discomfort and make it difficult to grow and maintain healthy nails. Onychoschizia can be caused by a variety of factors, including excessive exposure to water, repetitive trauma to the nails, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, aging, and certain medical conditions.
