Crazy Glue/nail Glue

I have a toenail that is splitting vertically and breaks and catches on everything. It has been happening for months, and I know it is from vitamin deficiencies. I'm hoping that more time on the gluten-free diet will resolve the vitamin problem causing this. In the meantime, I need to stop the nail from splitting. So I want to use nail glue or crazy glue to coat the whole nail while it grows out a bit and maybe reapply every month if it won't stop breaking.

Does anyone know if nail glue or crazy glue has gluten. Even if it has gluten, what kind of cross contact problems would I have after a shower or three. I would consider myself a super sensitive.

Before you try glueing this together it might be a good idea to see a podiatrist (foot doctor). Personally I would avoid the adhesives and it you don't want to see a doctor about it perhaps you could cover the nail with a bandaid until it grows in complete. That can take a while. I crushed my thumb and broke the nail off partially from below the cuticle, it was broken in the center but not on the very edges. That happened in December and it still has about 1/4 of an inch to go before the thumb has a complete nail. You may also want to perhaps take some biotin in supplement form to help speed the process just a bit.

      Welcome to the forum! This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):    This article may also be helpful:

      Many years ago yes, after eating and going to bed, apparently my esophagus filled with food that my body rejected, the esophagus would lay against the Heart sack (pericardium?) and the heart would respond by becoming arrhythmic. That went away with the strict diet.

      I was commenting on the report saying it did not mention migraines! Yes it does last paragraph says have not seen any evidence that Celiac cause migraines! I thought this was about truth?

      It has been known for some years that celiacs suffer from migraines at a higher rate than the general populatation. It is an established symptom.

      I suffer so bad with migraines when I eat gluten! Yes diagnosed celiac disease n 2015 and it took me years to discover gluten was behind me having severe migraines.  So yes it happens there has to be others like me!
