I have had the same problem with nails lifting from my nail beds,(I am 48)3 on the left hand and 1 on the right. There is really no pain involved, except for maybe a dull throb when I occasionally bang into one of them. I am still trying to find out how this occured. I was going to have my nails silk wrapped every 2 weeks for about 6 months, and my manicurist said it happened because I hit the nails "head-on" which I don't agree with. I had no choice but to remove the wrap and go 'naked.' I still have no closure.
