    This kind of nail problem indicates either poor health or bad eating habits that leads to low level of zinc and iron. Besides this there are several other causes like very dry or very wet nails, some nail infections and health issues like anemia and thyroids.  This could be the reason that is causing darkening and cracking of the skin around the nails.

    I would suggest you consult dermatologist near you to get checked for thyroids and anemia. Take care of your diet, a diet rich in calcium, proteins, Zine and iron are very helpful. Use moisturizer and avoid harsh chemical and soap.

Does it itch? applying moisturizers along with peeling agents like (retinoids, salicylic acid, 15-20% urea, lactic acid) and mild steroids might help resolve the lesions. But there is no any universally accepted effective treatment for KP. Please visit the dermatologist and confirm the case and he/she will help u with the best medications.
