Ridges on your fingernails, also known as “nail ridges,” can be a sign of various health conditions or simply a normal part of aging. Here’s what a doctor might explain about the different types of ridges you may notice:
1. **Vertical Ridges (Longitudinal Ridges)**:
– These are the most common type of ridges that run from the tip of the nail to the cuticle.
– **Aging**: As you age, it’s normal for vertical ridges to appear. This is due to slower nail growth, which affects the appearance.
– **Health Conditions**: Vertical ridges can also be linked to conditions such as:
– **Vitamin deficiencies** (especially iron or vitamin B12)
– **Arthritis**
– **Poor circulation**
– **Dehydration**
