Light-gray lines on fingernails
Hello. I've just noticed several light greyish lines on my fingernails. The most noticeable one is the gray-brownish line on my left index which ends just right before the cuticle. The finger was previously injured by a stapler 2 weeks ago. Is it caused by it? Or an another case like melanoma? Or just vitamin deficiency like my father said?
