Biting Skin Around My Fingers

Asked for Female, 21 years

Hi, I’m a 16 year old girl with a very bad problem. I bite the skin around my nails. It’s become very bad that my biting has almost reached to the middle of my finger. Please help... how do I stop this? When I get acrylic nails (fake long nails) I don’t bite them but I don’t have enough money and my mom won’t buy them regularly. I also bite my actual nails so I can’t grow my natural nails out either.... is there any easy way I can stop from biting the skin around my nails? Thank you

Dear Patient,

I'm sorry to hear that. Apply neem water on your fingertips to help avoid biting them.

For further consultation, you can choose from our list of best Dermatologists in New York City and seek in-person advice.
