Personal Hygiene - Nails

Nails need little attention apart from regular cutting of filing: keeping the nails reasonably short helps to prevent splitting. Push back the cuticles at the base of the finger nails with blunt instrument, such as an orange stick. Cut toe nails straight across, not rounded like finger nails, to avoid pressure from shoe forcing the nail into the skin at the edges and causing ingrowing nails.
