What causes fingernails to have ridges and then sometimes split down these ridges?

Ridges on the nail are, unfortunately, mostly down to genetic causes. Also though you can't change hereditary factors, you can smooth the ridged nail surface with a buffer and buffing cream. However, if you have only recently developed ridges on your nails, this could be a sign of anaemia, and you may want to consult your doctor.
