​There are black vertical lines on the nails

Some people's nail surfaces are not smooth and full, and feel rough, and you can even clearly see black vertical lines. This is probably because they often use their brains and work too hard without rest. If the black vertical lines disappear automatically after a period of time, you can ignore it. But if they do not disappear, it may be a sign of kidney problems. So what should you do when there are black vertical lines on your nails?

Also note that the depth of the finger lines is related to the severity of the disease.

There are also horizontal lines. When they first appear, they may start from the bottom of the nail. As the nail grows, they gradually move upward. In this case, the horizontal lines on the nails are a record of the lesions that have occurred. If the horizontal lines are small and numerous, it indicates long-term chronic digestive system diseases, such as gastroenteritis, colitis, stomach disease, etc. If there is a very deep horizontal line, it means that you have had a serious gastrointestinal disease. The deeper it is, the more serious it is; the shallower it is, the more chronic it is. If the horizontal lines are raised, it indicates heart problems, liver problems, and a lack of vitamin A, B, etc.
