It is calcium deficiency but pulverizing egg shells won’t solve the problem fast enough, since they’ll still have to be decomposed further before being available to plants.
Either use a specific tomato fertiliser, or better still : manage your watering better, as it is often the real cause.

As I understand it a crushed antacid works quicker, since the calcium is ground up much finer. Eggshells work more in the long term.

Egg shells go in the compost. Smash 'em up a little to increase surface area.
Add some broth and potatoes and you gotta stew goin’!
My wife cracks an egg and drops the shell into each hole when we do transplants.
