What could be the cause of vertical black lines in finger and toenails? i had a nurse tell me it could mean heart problems but after listening to my heart said it sounded normal.

Please : Please see a dermatologist. It could just be melanonychia due to increased pigmentation, but a skin cancer called melanoma can also present with streaks. You may need a biopsy.
