Black lines on the nail can be the result of many conditions. Trauma is one of the most common causes of splinter hemorrhages. This can occur when something hurts your nail bed and bursts a blood vessel under your nail.

Ridges in the fingernails are often normal signs of aging. Slight vertical ridges commonly develop in older adults. In some cases, they may be a sign of health problems like vitamin deficiencies or diabetes. Deep horizontal ridges, called beau's lines, may indicate a serious condition.

Melanonychia is caused when the pigment cells, called melanocytes, deposit melanin into the nail. Melanin is a brown colored pigment. These deposits are usually grouped together. As your nail grows, it causes the stripe of brown or black to appear on your nail.

The main symptom of an ingrown toenail is the pain from the nail growing into the skin instead of over it. If the ingrown toenail gets infected, it might be swollen or red, and it might drain pus. The area around the ingrown toenail is often painful.

Medical history- i'm 56, female, diabetic since ten years approx. My fasting glucose remains around 240 while pp around 290. I've been taking medicines (galvus met 50/1000 mg and amaryl 2 -both bd) since long, but my sugar levels didn't show any significant changes and hence my doctor added vogliboz 0.3 tds to my regime (two weeks back). Last, I got my glucose levels tested yesterday and they are still the same, only a mild reduction registered. I walk 3-4 kms daily in the morning, apart from that I don't have any other physical activity on schedule. My last month's thyroid report- (t3/t4-normal tsh-low-0.21 iu/ml) i'm currently on thyroxine 75 mcg as well. Main problem- my toe nails have been showing an inward growth since an year or two, which has now started causing pain. I feel soreness in my left toe almost all the time, while it hurts insanely whenever it contacts any hard surface. Nailbed has become so thickened, that it is not possible for me to cut the toenail myself. What should I do to curb this problem? Also i'm having a little pain in my heels and ankles lately, but it is not much significant. And my doctor told me that I will need to switch to insulin, if my sugar levels remain the same after two months. Can I not be treated with oral drugs anymore?

From your history it sounds like you hv developed ingrown toe nai. Along with fungal infection of nail (onychomycosis). Correct diagnosis to be made only after proper examination. For acute pain you can take nsaids (like aceclofenac). Once the pain is subsided, you can cut the ingrown portion of toe nail (or removal of matrix of nail. For onychomycosis pulse dose of cap itraconazole is given along with topical (like cyclopirox olamine/ amorolfine lotion). Visit nearst dermatolgist. Thanks.

Fingernails are made by living skin cells in your fingers. So a skin condition such as eczema may lead to fingernail ridges. Skin dryness can also cause these ridges. If your body is low in protein, calcium, zinc, or vitamin a, a deficiency can sometimes be revealed by ridges in your fingernails.
