A member asked:
Is it true that not having moons on any fingers except for thumbs mean something bad or short life or is this a myth ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lunula: Sometimes the lunula is under the skin and not readily visable. Absent lunula can sometimes be associated with a vitamin deficiency or medical condition. It doesn't mean you will have a short life.
