Guest guest Posted November 21, 2004 Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 Hi , What do you mean exactly by hyperplastic toenails? Jack's toenails are a strange shape with lots of ridges on them and he hates having them cut.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2004 Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 I have to cut Bradleys toenails in his sleep. He hates having his hair cut...it is like a wrestling match. He is due for a cut now. He used to eye poke and I thought that it was one of those self stim behaviours. But he has stopped that. I even forgot about it until I just read the note. ck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 21, 2004 Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 hyperplastic toenails are very small and they do kind of have a ridge too, they seem grow rather strange, it is hard to tell what is toenail that needs to be clipped and what is still attach to the skin. our genetic doc told me it common in charge kids. jennifer > Hi , > What do you mean exactly by hyperplastic toenails? > Jack's toenails are a strange shape with lots of ridges on them and he hates > having them cut. > > Elaine, mum to Elise (12yrs) & Jack (7yrs) CHaRGE > Scotland > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 21, 2004 Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 Aubrie freaks when I cut her nails!!!! And when shampooing hair -- as if it truly hurts her. Her nails are also hyperplastic. I think this means that they weren't completely developed at birth. Aubrie's nails are getting more " normal " as she matures. Even as her sensory issues have improved, the nail clipping and shampooing have not. Michele W Aubrie's mom 6 yrs > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
