Dear readers, have you ever noticed that nail changes can sometimes be a warning sign of a physical health condition? Today we are going to share how to deal with the following 5 abnormalities in your nails.

1.Thinning of nails: This can be a sign of nutritional problems such as vitamin deficiencies, anemia, etc. At the same time, thyroid diseases and fungal infections should also be noted. 2.Sunken nails: This can be a sign of diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's syndrome, etc. In addition, people who work in a stressful environment for a long time are also prone to sunken nails. 3.Nail discoloration: yellowing or browning may be a manifestation of inflammatory diseases such as paronychia and yellow nail syndrome. The sudden appearance of red or black spots should be alert to hemangioma, melanoma, etc. 4.Perinail** changes: such as redness, swelling, pain, peeling, etc., may be a precursor to paronychia. On the other hand, periungual warts (**growths) may have a rough, bumpy appearance. 5.Nail loss: This can be due to a variety of reasons, such as fungal infections, psoriasis, thyroid problems, etc. Especially if a single nail falls off, you should be especially vigilant and seek medical attention in time.
