My 16 yrs old daughter is facing problem in foot nails from sometime her foot nails are getting black and seems to get off soon. She is a porphyria patient hence I cannot give her every medicine. We have been to a doctor he prescribed a tube to be applied on nails and terbinafine but this medicine is unsafe for her. Can you please suggest something what to do and how to get rid of this problem as soon as possible

Patients of porphyria can have nail abnormalities. It is not advisable to prescribe without examining the patient. Kindly send photos using online consult option for better understanding of the problem. Once diagnosis is made, then only we can prescribe some medicine. Please do not use anything without proper examination.
