Medical Conditions: Beau’s Lines: Horizontal ridges can result from illness, high fever, or malnutrition. Melanonychia: Dark stripes, especially if they appear suddenly, may require medical evaluation. Fungal Infections: Can cause white, yellow, or dark streaks. Autoimmune Disorders: Conditions like psoriasis can lead to nail ridges or discoloration. When to See a Doctor: Dark stripes that weren’t there before. Deep horizontal grooves.
