A member asked:

What is white crest of a fingernail?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lunula: I believe you are referring to the lunula or "little moon" seen under your fingernail most prominently on your thumb. It is an area of less developed collagen and has little medical significance although abnormailties may be associated with systemic disease.
