why do i have ridges on my fingernails?!


Question: Why do i have ridges on my fingernails?
Also, the "moons" on my nails are invisible. Vitamin issue?
Thanks very much!

Answers:

I had ridges in my finger nails as well. I had surgery and my doc says that my nails stopped growing for little while because I was so sick. So when they start to grow again it forms a ridge.

Personal experience



i'm not sure about the moons, but i too have ridges on my fingernails... i also have a skin issue -- psoriasis, which messes with my nails.



Ridges come around when your fingernails get long. That's just a structural issue.

No idea about "moons". They're barely visible on me.



You know, you could actually find these things out by looking into palmistry a little. I've read a palmistry books, but the information is hard to retain.



i've got a blister on my hand that wont heal -.-
