Light black vertical line on the nail
I have noticed that I had this black vertical line on my index finger since 2 months.
And having this is fine ?? Because when I Googled it, it said as this is one of the symptoms of skin cancer.
Just wanted to know that does this vertical dark line occur on the mail only if a person has skin cancer or could it be due to something else.
