RE: Vertical ridges on dialysis patient's fingernails is a sign of what their systemic condition entails
I have always heard that vertical ridges are just normal in some people (I have had them for as long as i can remember but they are pretty subtle). Horizontal ridges are more problematic because they indicate inconsistent nail growth which usually points to other health issues.
One thing that you can really see is that my fingernails doesn't have that white part in the upper area. It is still an enigma for me why it is like that too.
