      there are 3 more reasons
      1 of them is regular use of nail polish.

      Same. My doctor did a blood panel because of mine 💀 Too be fair I had multiple deficiencies. I had to go on quite a few vitamins and new meds. I eventually received new diagnosis (I had multiple autoimmune already) Potassium & VitD was so low I had to get an IV. My GP believing something untrue Really helped me out I guess!

    Actually, in my case it really was zinc deficiency. I didn’t get any trauma to the nails. As soon as I started taking appropriate supplements and adjusted my nutrition, the white spots went away. I’ve had this problem practically all my life and the deficiency is just how I am.

    I never injured my nails. But I have been using the most intense version of acetone nail polish remover and have worn nail polish constantly for the last several months. I think that's what it is because it's covering literally all my nails. I'm deciding to take a break from the acetone and nail polish to see if anything changes. Never had this problem until now.

    • @tabora_

      Well acetone literally eats at your nails..... they're probably thin af, and I would highly recommend taking a big break from painting your nails.

      use jojoba oil to hydrate ur nails and cuticles! ur nails get very dry after using acetone so use an alternative like peel off base

    • @flintfrommother3gaming
      @flintfrommother3gaming ปีที่แล้ว +1

      After some point of using these very concantrated acetone oftenly, you might lose your nails altogether so, don't do it man.
