What r the white spota under your finger nail y r they there?!


Question: The white spots under your nails are there because, at one time or another, you hit or slammed your fingernails onto something. These spots are pretty much similar to scars on your skin. Often times, you should not be alarmed when you have them under your nails. As your nails grow, after a time, you'd notice that the spots are gone too.

Sometimes though, the spots may indicate that you are allergic to nail paints and polishes. Psoriasis and eczema can also trigger these whitish spots to appear. Lastly, if your nails are fragile, they will easily split so you will often have white spots under them.
