Overgrown Hyponychium

I know that having fake nails for a long time can cause overgrown hyponychium, but what the internet canโ€™t seem to answer for me is WHY or HOW this happens. How does wearing dip nails for extended periods of time cause this little piece of skin to overgrow??

Damaged Hyponychium

Iโ€™ve been picking at the skin on my fingers and toes as long as I can remember, but this is new for me. I cut my nail too short a few weeks ago. It happens, just painful and annoying.

But being a skin picker, I found the hyponychium(which is apparently the skin under the nail), can be peeled too. Itโ€™s very painful, but I canโ€™t stop. I keep putting band aids on, it heals a bit, then I take it off and start again. It really hurts, but I canโ€™t seem to stop myself.

Anyone ever do this and have any advice?

Do you ever have your hyponychium separate slightly?

For reference, I have been growing out my nails for about four or five years now. Every now and then my hyponychium will rip right on the edge between the nail and my finger tip. It never bleeds out, it is always completely clean, and for the most part there is not much pain unless I pull the skin back or press my finger tip in a weird way. When I look closely at it and pull it back a little bit, there is a little bit of red skin underneath there. It does not bleed out, but when I put my nail in there it hurts.I am honestly not bothered by it, because whenever it happens it usually heals within a day or two, but I was just wondering if this happens to other people with long nails. If so, is there a specific reason/phenomenon? Iโ€™m just curious.

Wanting to learn bass but can't cut my nails as short as they might need to be due to an extended hyponychium (skin under nails extends beyond the end of my fingertips), what can I do?

So I really like just using my fingers so far, I like that more full bodied "round" sound but the problem I've run into is my nails. Obviously the solution for most people would be to just cut them as short as possible but I can't do that without pain or discomfort and just looking online, there's really no way to actually get rid of it since its just how my nails are and it doesn't bother me otherwise. I was thinking about just getting them as short as I can get them and then just trying to create a smooth rounded fingertip with medical tape or a bandage but besides that I don't really know what else to do.

Am I just destined to not be able to play bass with my fingers and instead having to use a pick?

Why does the skin under my nail (hyponychium?) always get pushed back as my nails grow?

When my nails are short, the skin under my nails grows toward the tips of my fingers like I want to happen. However, any time my nails grow out, I can feel and see the skin under my nails is pushed back.

I donโ€™t know if has anything to do with my hands always being in sanitizer and water at work. I just want to have long nails again.

Help! A question about โ€œhyponychiumโ€. My nails have developed some sort of translucent skin underneath at the tip of my finger. How do I remove it?

Hello, to start off, I am not knowledgeable about nail care or nails in general. I had a gel manicure a few weeks ago and I let my nail grow really long for the first time as I was not able to have my gel manicure removed. However, the length of my nails became an inconvenience so I decided to cut them. I discovered that I had some sort of translucent skin that I didnโ€™t have before, and it hurts whenever I cut near it. Iโ€™m used to have really short nails so Iโ€™d much rather have it removed.

Any advice will do! I tried to Google it but most of the suggested treatments about it are conflicting. Thank you so much!

Extended Hyponychium?

I recently developed an overgrown skin underneath one of my thumbs. Google suggests that this is called "Hyponychium." I've had this in the past every now and then but would disappear. However, it's lasting a little bit longer this time (onto the 2nd week) and it's very tender when touched. I clean under my nails often (daily) and it's difficult not to touch it. How can I get rid of this?

My nails are too short is there any way to grow the hyponychium furthur out to my finger edge? Also question about gel polish.

Hey laq(c)ueristas! I have always wanted long nails but I almost always have stubs =(. My nails are very thin(transparent like glass) and flexible. One problem I have is that my hyponychium is further back than most peoples because I overly cleaned them when I was younger. I was wondering if anyone knows how or has successfully grown theirs longer to provide more nail strength. I was also thinking of getting a gel polish system like shellac to use to strengthen my nails. I wonder if it healthy to wear all the time as I can't imagine it allows the nail to breath, as well as the fact it contains chemicals. I would get silk wraps but they also use glue and might cost more over time(plus I'm unsure where to find an esthetician to do it). FYI my nails look so pretty right now with OPI:so many clowns too little time on =) though a little streaky on the right >.< Thanks Everyone =)

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Just because it's a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke

Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB

Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"

I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual

So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes

r/unclejokes for dirty jokes

r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC

r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes

Punchline !

Edit: this is not a post about NSFW , This is about jokes, knock knock jokes, blonde jokes, political jokes etc being posted in a dad joke sub

Edit 2: don't touch the thermostat
