This Is What The Color Of Your Fingernails Reveals About Your Health

This Is What The Color Of Your Fingernails Reveals About Your Health: Your fingernails do say a lot about your health and ignoring them is not really the best thing to do. Observe any color changes, bumps, or marks and make sure you get them checked out. A visit to your physician is something we highly recommend as soon as you spot any such change.

1. Dark lines

Dark lines on the fingernails are definitive indicators of serious health issues and should not be ignored under any circumstances. Melanoma, one of the deadliest types of skin cancer can be one of the primary reasons for the darkness on your nails.

2. Gnawed nails

Gnawed nails are usually a result of nail-biting as nails generally don’t degrade this way. If you find yourself gnawing on your nails, it may indicate persistent anxiety issues and may even lead to an obsessive-compulsive situation for you. The problem may be psychological and well worth getting checked out.
