Yet Another Hang Nail!

I cannot believe this!
I get over one hang nail just to get another!
What is this nonsense!
These doggone things hurt worse than some surgeries I've been through!
I recalled an old wives tale about taking extra zinc to help harden your nails. I am taking extra zinc and as of today have decided to halt any extra and see if that is the culprit.
Other than that I am at a loss and am hoping this new one goes away soon! I poke and gouge to no end on it!
