[Nail changes within the scope of reflex dystrophy].
We describe a 16-year-old boy with reflex sympathetic dystrophy after a fracture of the right hand. He had inflammation of the proximal nail folds and arrested nail growth of digits 3, 4 and 5 on the right hand. After 2 months lymphatic drainage treatment, the changes of the nails had disappeared.
