What causes the ends of my finger nail towards the tip to turn red?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More history needed: When does this happen? Are you resting, working with your hands, have they been wet, wearing tight gloves for some time, exposed to chemicals.... There are many possibilities. Since I cannot see your skin, I cannot give further advice. Wishing you the best ...
