💬 Summary: Your nails are a mirror, but not a crystal ball

We look for signals in our bodies—in our skin, hair, and nails—to learn about our health.

Although nail ridges are usually a sign of the passage of time, sometimes they can be a sign of deeper problems.

So if you see:

Subtle vertical lines?

→ Probably aging. Moisturize and move on.

Sudden, profound or painful changes?

→ Time to see a doctor.
