Hi all, this is a bit of an odd one but does anyone else find that wearing nail varnish is uncomfortable and often painful ?

I find that my fingers go numb and my nails start to hurt and my hands often swell, it is a relief to get it off.

Not so odd....I had a special occasion so I had acrylic nails put on. OMG I thought I would die before I had them taken off. Took me a few days to figure out what was going on. I will never do that again. It took my nails 6 months to recover.

I'm wondering If cleaning products affect fibro ?
