    <> I have also had this situation, I remember that I was in high school at that time, and then I lived in high school all the time, and one day when I was doing a question, I clasped my hand, and I found that my thumb and several other fingers had that kind of small pit like a ditch, and they were of different depths, but almost every finger had it.

    At that time, I was very scared, thinking that I had some disease, asked for leave to go home, when my mother took me to the doctor, the doctor laughed and asked me if you usually don't eat vegetables, and then sometimes you stay up late, and then the stool is irregular, I said that this situation happens from time to time in the third year of high school, and then I don't like to eat vegetables, I just eat cooked vegetables from childhood to adulthood, that is, raw vegetables, like the dipping pickles that everyone loves to eat, I never eat them, only occasionally eat two tomatoes, In other cases, it is to eat cooked dishes, and the doctor said that this is not good, if the white half moon on your fingernails is missing, it means that there is a lack of calcium. If this groove-like pit appears in the nails, it is a sign of iron deficiency and vitamin deficiency.

    After seeing the doctor, I was relieved, it was not a big problem, and then the doctor suggested that I should eat more vegetables, especially green vegetables, if I really don't like to eat other vegetables, you can buy two cucumbers from time to time to eat, or eat some lettuce from time to time, but it is best not to eat only cooked vegetables, not to eat that kind of lettuce, even if the green vegetables are cooked, some nutrients in it will be lost, some vitamins will be lost, so that the purpose of supplementing vitamins can not be achieved, Therefore, in daily life, you should eat regularly, not be picky eaters, and have a regular schedule and rest.

    Then, not long after, I took vitamin tablets and ate some vegetables in moderation, and my nails returned to normal, so don't worry, it's not a big problem, you can eat vegetables and fruits regularly.

    <> I used to have the same confusion about the question you asked. Now I come to your question, small pits on the nails are a sign of the low amount of calcium in the body. It's not a serious illness, it's just a lack of calcium, and it's okay to replenish it in time.

    I think everyone has been deficient in calcium to a greater or lesser extent, but calcium deficiency is reflected differently in us. Some people have loose teeth, loose joints, soft bones or even deformed, some people have numb hands and feet, weak limbs, sleeping cramps, and some are the same as you, with small pits on their nails.

    Why do I say I've had similar symptoms? It was when I was in junior high school, and when I was cutting my nails, I found a small pit in my nails, and I didn't know what it was, because I had never seen this before, and I was quite scared. I hurriedly told my parents, but the terrible thing was that my parents didn't know, and then I went to the hospital for a blood test, and after the results came out, I found that it was just a lack of calcium.

    Because they grow too fast and develop too fast, they are deficient in calcium content. My mother bought a bottle of calcium tablets for me to eat, and after a few days of eating, I felt that the small pit gradually became smaller, and finally it was gone. The effect is obvious, and apparently the calcium supplementation is absorbed.

    Therefore, it is recommended that you also buy some calcium tablets or calcium-containing meat, eggs and milk and other substances for supplementation.

    There are many elements needed by the human body, some are a large number of elements, and some are trace elements, but no matter what kind of element, if it is missing, it will not work, and it will affect the normal operation of various functions of the body. Therefore, we should pay more attention to the content of elements in our body, and replenish it in time when we find that the content is reduced, so that it is more conducive to our health.

    Puttles in the fingernails usually indicate a change in disease or poor nutritional status throughout the body, and the main causes are as follows:

    1. Systemic malnutrition: there is partial eating or gastrointestinal diseases, resulting in dystrophy or absorption of certain trace elements or vitamins, resulting in malnutrition;

    2. Local infection: fungi, paronychia or local cavities;

    3. The immune or metabolic status of the whole body is related: the human body is tired or the immune and metabolic status is poor, resulting in small local pits.

    Nails have vigorous growth ability and regeneration ability, which is a good manifestation and external indication of human regeneration ability. Nails have a process and speed of growth from the root of the nail to the distal end, so some manifestations of the nail represent the manifestation of a certain period, disease or physical condition of the human body. Small pits in the fingernails are not necessarily a serious disease, as long as you pay attention to whether the pits progress distally, whether they resolve or disappear over time.

    Since the dimple in a certain part of the nail represents the condition of a few months ago, because the nail still continues to grow forward, you can know the physical condition of a few months ago, and it also suggests balanced nutrition, reasonable diet, and pay attention to rest to improve the level of nutrition and systemic immunity.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, if the crescent moon on a person's fingernails is large and shiny, it indicates that the person's qi and blood are relatively abundant; If the crescent moon becomes smaller or gradually disappears, it means that the body's qi and blood are declining, and the physical condition is not as good as before.
