I am a 28 year old male and as far as my doctors goes, he says I’m healthy other than slight raised triglycerides and cholesterol.... but I’m currently working on that.

As the title states, i have noticed some raised horizontal lines on my toe nails... I am worried that they are beaus lines. I looked on google images and beaus lines seem to be horizontal indentations where as mine seem to be raised horizontal lines.  Can these still be beaus lines? They are on a few toes on each foot, I have none on my hands.  I have anxiety over this so any input helps.

    If you have them on your foot nails it's 100 percent normal, many of people have them but if they are on your hand nails and doctors told you that you are fine then listen to them
