White spots on toenails
Hello doctors,
I have noticed these white spots since one month back.
Since December, I have been applying nail paints frequently.
Otherwise I never use any nailpolish etc.
That orange mark is from mehndi, I applied it on foot and some of the mehndi touched my toenail as well.
Please suggest why I got these white spots.
Please find the attached picture for reference.
Thanks in advance.

They are not any infection
They are just keratin formulations after nail polish remover as they damage the upper cuticle layer
Consult for correction of these
