Anemia
Iron deficiency anemia can manifest through spoon-shaped nails or nails that are pale and brittle. Inadequate iron levels affect the production of hemoglobin, which can result in oxygen deprivation to the nails and other tissues.
Liver and Kidney Conditions
Liver and kidney disorders can influence the appearance of your nails. Yellowing of the nails (jaundice) can be a symptom of liver problems, while half-and-half nails (white at the base and pink at the top) may indicate kidney disease.
Diabetes
People with diabetes are more prone to fungal nail infections. Additionally, diabetes can affect blood circulation, leading to changes in nail color and texture.
