A member asked:

My finger nail has a darker pink color sorrounding the white part at the beginning and a bump in the middle that evens out at the end what can it be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nail damage : this suggest you have nail damage. It does not say what it's from. It could be due to the systemic illness, mechanical or even trauma or damage in this sort. Ask your physician to have you see a dermatologist who can help clarify the cause of this.
