What is the problem of white spots on children's nails?

When parents are taking care of their children, they must learn to pay attention to their children's physical health conditions, because many times some of the characteristics and signals reflected by the children's bodies are actually conveying to the parents their physical health problems. For example, if a child has white spots on his nails, it may also be a reaction to some disease in their body, such as poor digestion or lack of certain trace elements.

From a clinical perspective, there may be three reasons for white spots or white spots on the nails. One is that if you often have stomach pain symptoms, you may have roundworms. The second is poor digestive function. The third is the lack of certain trace elements in the body. Therefore, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital for examination and then receive symptomatic treatment. Too many white spots on the nails are a sign of neurasthenia, yellow spots are a sign of digestive system diseases, and small grains on the nails are a sign of drug poisoning or parasites in the body.

White spots or mica-like spots on the nails indicate a lack of trace elements such as calcium and silicon, and the presence of parasites. Such people are prone to nervousness, irritability, and habitual constipation.

White spots or floc-like white spots on the nails may be caused by zinc deficiency, gastrointestinal disease, or anemia. A rough, dull face with grooves, vertical stripes, white spots, and an abnormal proportion of health circles is often a sign of poor physical condition.

White spots on the nails are very common and usually recur. Some people say that this is a sign of poor gastrointestinal function, but this has no medical basis. Because of long-term exposure to the outside, nails are easily damaged. For example, fingers get stuck in door cracks, nails are squeezed or collided, etc., which causes damage to the nail matrix cells at the root of the nails during production, resulting in white spots. If the nail bed is damaged, splinter-like bleeding will occur under the nails. Don't worry though, as the nail grows upwards it will eventually be trimmed off.

Although there is no clear medical explanation for white spots on the nails, we have found in clinical work that some children with calcium and zinc deficiency will experience this condition. It is recommended that you take your child to the hospital for trace element testing to determine the cause of the disease and receive appropriate treatment.

Protein nails, also known as white spot nails, are caused by disease or nail injury that allows air to enter the inner layer of the nail. If the nails are not loose and there are no other abnormalities, you can apply nail polish or get crystal nails.

Nails develop from nail cells. When there is external stimulation or improper nail care, the development function of some nail cells will be hindered. The white spots and fine lines that appear in this case will eventually be eliminated by us after a period of time as the nail cells recover and grow outwards. The growth period for fingernails is 3 months, and for toenails it is 12 months.

The above is an analysis of some of the reasons why children have white spots on their nails. After understanding this common sense and analysis, parents should pay attention to it. If they want to take better care of their children in life, then when these conditions appear in their bodies, they must pay attention to it. This will help them avoid the harm caused by some adverse diseases as much as possible.
