Splinter hemorrhage
Hi I am a 20yr old male , I have got like 3 to 4 splitner hemorrhage on a nail in my left hand. And I am pretty sure I didn't injure my fingernail. I have had a pretty lazy and non active lifestyle from past 2 and a half years. I get minor heart aches some times in the past year. I am worried if I have a heart issue. I have shortness of breath also but that could be me being anxious. I am worried and wondering if I should get my heart checked out but one other issue is that I don't know whether I should visit a hospital during this coronavirus pandemic going on.
Should I be worried about these splinter hemorrhages?
Thank You.
