10. Horizontal Lines
[adinserter block=”1″]
Also known as Beau’s Ridges, these indentations often result from an injury or systemic illness. While there is no clear cause, some doctors hypothesize that an interference in blood supply can result in Beau’s Ridges. They may be a sign of poorly controlled diabetes, as well as several other conditions including malnutrition, hypertension, and renal failure, as well as infections like measles, mumps, malaria, or pneumonia. If you notice horizontal lines on more than one of your nails or have been diagnosed with prediabetes or diabetes, check with your doctor to monitor your symptoms.
