I am 44 years old female. My nails have vertical ridges on them, and are also prone to breaking very easily. I cannot wear these long even two mm as they break or chip very soon. Pl advise.

Most likely, your nails are infected with fungus and need consistent prolonged treatment with oral and local antifungal medicines, for about 12 to 18 weeks. You ask for private consultation on Lybrate regarding this problem and get the necessary prescription.
