At what age do children have crescents on their fingers?

The half-moons on our fingers actually reflect our health to a certain extent. Especially those friends who are familiar with Chinese medicine know that the crescents on their fingers reflect our body's digestive ability and resistance. Therefore, when many mothers pay attention to their children's growth, they are very concerned about when the crescents will grow on their children's fingers. In fact, there are no strict regulations.

The scientific name of the "crescent" is the lunula. In healthy people, the lunula is of moderate size. People with a small or missing lunula generally have poor digestive function, are relatively weak, and are easily fatigued. Nails are a barometer of physical health. Normal nails are ruddy, curved, smooth and shiny, and the lunula at the root of the nail is grayish white.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, if the half-moon on a person's fingernail has a large curvature and good luster, it indicates that the person has abundant qi and blood; if the half-moon becomes smaller or gradually disappears, it means that the person's qi and blood are declining, and the physical condition is not as good as before. Traditional Chinese medicine does have records that the white crescent can be used to determine whether a person's heart function is good. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the liver stores blood, and the quality of blood circulation will directly affect the function of the heart. The liver's essence is concentrated on a person's fingernails.

Generally speaking, people with white crescents have strong heart energy and smooth blood circulation; if the white crescent is relatively small or does not exist at all, the heart energy is weaker and the blood circulation may not be very good. The liver opens to the eyes, governs the tendons, and its essence is in the nails. This shows that the strength or weakness of liver blood can affect the growth and decline of nails.
