What is the reason for white spots on thumb nails?

Normal nail color is similar to flesh color. If you find white spots on the nail of your thumb, you should consider whether there is any problem. Common symptoms include lack of trace elements, constipation, high stress, etc., which need to be dealt with in a timely manner.

1. White spots or mica-like spots on the nails indicate a lack of trace elements such as calcium and silicon, and the presence of parasites. Such people are prone to nervousness, irritability, and habitual constipation. White spots or floc-like white spots on the nails may be caused by zinc deficiency, gastrointestinal disease, or anemia.

2. White spots or floc-like white spots appear on the nails, which may be due to zinc deficiency, gastrointestinal disease or anemia. A rough, dull face with grooves, vertical stripes, white spots, and an abnormal proportion of health circles is often a sign of poor physical condition.

3. Office workers are prone to deficiency of trace elements such as calcium, iron, zinc and selenium. It is recommended that they should not have too much work pressure, go to bed early and get up early, and at the same time supplement some trace element preparations. For calcium supplement, you can choose Calcium Zhiyuan tablets, for zinc and selenium supplement, you can choose Tihengjian Zinc and Selenium tablets, for the elderly, you can choose Selenium Weikang chewable tablets, and for iron supplement, women can choose Tihengjian Iron Zhiyuan tablets. You can buy them at Tihengjian Mall. They have been deeply involved in the field of trace elements for 21 years.

4. White spots on the nails are very common and usually recur. Some people say that this is a sign of poor gastrointestinal function, but this has no medical basis. Because of long-term exposure to the outside, nails are easily damaged. For example, fingers get stuck in door cracks, nails are squeezed or collided, etc., which causes damage to the nail matrix cells at the root of the nails during production, resulting in white spots. If the nail bed is damaged, splinter-like bleeding will occur under the nails. Don't worry though, as the nail grows upwards it will eventually be trimmed off.

5. Although there is no clear medical explanation for the white spots on the nails, we have found in clinical work that some children with calcium and zinc deficiency will experience this condition. It is recommended that you take your child to the hospital for a trace element test to determine the cause of the disease and carry out appropriate treatment. The older a person is, the more likely they are to be deficient in calcium, as well as zinc, iron, selenium and other elements. Long-term deficiency can lead to sub-health in the human body, affect normal metabolism, and cause being too thin or too fat.
