7 Nail Health Signs That You Should Pay Attention To!

Last Updated on June 12, 2020

 

3. Yellow Or Thickening Nails

<p>Have you ever seen disgusting yellowish thick nails? They usually appear on older people, but some of them (mostly men) don’t even cut them, so not only are their nails yellow and thick but also long!

Sorry if I’m making you feel sick or disgusted, but the truth is, the reason behind yellow or thick nails is pretty disgusting too. This type of nails is a sign of fungal infection, and because they’re on your nails, it’s very hard to fight the infection with regular medication.
If you have thick nails, even if they don’t have a yellow tone to them, it’s also a sign of infection.

Now, you can have healthy nails, but there’s a big difference between strong nails and thickened nails.

You should visit your doctor or go to the nearest pharmacy to get special medical care.
If you wear a lot of cheap nail polish, the yellow in your nails might be related to that, so always wear a protective polish before a colored one.

 

4. Pitting And Grooving

<p>You might be wondering what is even pitting and grooving, well, it sort of looks like depression or small cracks in your nail. It’s mostly related to psoriasis, which is an inflammatory disease that can lead to red patches all over your body.

So, if your nail shape is out of the ordinary, consider going to the doctor since the only way to find out if you have psoriasis is by diagnosing through a physical exam.
This problem can be fixed through medication, oral, or injection. Or even through therapy.

 

5. Brittle Or Thin Nails

<p>Probably the most common problem: having weak nails. It mostly has to do with not maintaining a healthy lifestyle, but if your nails break consistently, I have bad news for you. Nails breaking easily are a sign of a thyroid disorder. When you have this disorder, you might also feel more hair loss than usual and, of course, thin or brittle nails that break a lot and usually take longer to grow.
