What causes finger nail depressions

The causes of finger nail indentation include nutritional diseases, perinail diseases, nail trauma and localized nail infections. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination and symptomatic treatment according to your own situation.
1. Nutritional diseases: Calcium deficiency, anemia, malnutrition and other diseases will affect the function of nail matrix cells and synthesize abnormal nail plate proteins, resulting in uneven nails.
2. Periungual diseases: patients suffering from psoriasis, onychomycosis, etc. can also lead to abnormal nail shape.
3. Nail trauma: due to trauma, the nails are broken, and in the next growth, there will be a short period of uneven nails.
4. Localized nail infections: ringworm caused by fungal infections can also damage the nail matrix, resulting in uneven nails.
