Vertical thick black lines on finger nails

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi All,

I am 35 years old male. There are vertical black nails on my fingers. I have first observed them 4-5 months back. Can someone advise what could be the reason for it? Do I need to get any tests done to ensure it's not because of some serious problem?

    You should get it checked out by your doctor or dermatologist. It may be nothing at all but it could indicate something more serious. Impossible to tell on here.
