What vitamin deficiency causes vertical lines in fingernails?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Our nails naturally develop slight vertical ridges as we age. However, severe and raised ridges can be a sign of iron deficiency anemia. Nutritional deficiencies, such as a lack of vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin B12 or keratin can result in fingernail ridges. Hormonal changes can also cause ridges to appear.

I'm really concerned about my chest, it looks like I have man boobs and it's just not going away. I've tried all sorts of exercises but nothing seems to help. Could you recommend a good doctor for surgery or maybe give me some advice on what else I can do to fix this?
Consider consulting a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in gynecomastia surgery, and in the meantime, try exercises targeting the pectoral muscles, such as push-ups, dumbbell presses, and chest flys, while maintaining a healthy weight and hormone balance.
