My 8-year old daughter is a chronic nail biter, her fingers are always in her mouth and she has bitten down to where the tips of her fingers are red. She has a healthy diet and is socially well adapted. How can I help her?
I recommend using homeopathy. I have seen it work wonders for these types of conditions. You would need to meet with a trained homeopath or naturopathic doctor since there are a number of remedies that would work for nail biting. It will depend on the constellation of symptoms that need to be objectively assessed to find the correct remedy for her.
