Hi, some of my finger nails are looking a bit wierd and i am trying to figure out if i should see a doctor or be concerned about this.
About half my finger nails are showing some slight waviness or non-normal curvature where the middle of the nail dips down a bit and the end of the nail points up a bit.
This is most apparent on the nails of my two ring fingers. The nails one these fingers also seem a bit abnormally red and also have some sharper indents that run perpendicular to the rolling indents. Pictures of these nails are attached (the grooves/waves on the other fingers is probably too slight to be seen on camera).
Not sure how long it has been like this for. I think that it has only started in past 1-3 months, but i could be wrong. I haven't been able to find anything online that looks exactly like what i see on my fingers, but some things that are fairly similar (like curved nails, spoon nails) say that it could be a sign of vitamin deficienies or developing diseases.
I want to be pro-active on this if possible (but also don't want to spend time overthinking it if there is no issue).
I am 27 year old male, feel very healthy. Excersise often and eat well.
Not sure if it matters- but I used to bite my nails frequently and have mostly kicked the habit now, but sometimes find myself biting them a couple times a week.
Should i be concerned
Should i see a doctor about this?
Or should i just wait and keep an eye on it?
Thanks!
Dan
