Today, we dive into the perplexing world of Lucan Nikia, those enigmatic white marks that can plague our nails. Dr Dray enlightens us on the various types of Lucan Nikia, from spots to lines, shedding light on their origins. Forget the myths about calcium or iron deficiencies causing these marks – it's all about trauma to the nail Matrix. True Lucan Nikia, not to be confused with apparent or pseudo Lucan Nikia, arises from issues within the nail Matrix, while apparent Lucan Nikia stems from problems in the nail bed.
From arsenic poisoning to tight shoes, the causes of these white marks are as diverse as they are intriguing. Trauma from various sources, such as nail treatments or underlying health conditions like alopecia, can manifest as different patterns of Lucan Nikia. Vertical white lines, a sign of hereditary diseases or nail bed tumors, add another layer of complexity to this nail mystery. And let's not forget about pseudo Lucan Nikia, often a result of nail cosmetics or fungal infections wreaking havoc on our nails.
Dr Dray emphasizes the importance of proper nail care and identifying the root cause of these white marks for effective treatment. Moisturizing, gentle nail care, and avoiding irritating products can go a long way in maintaining nail health. Whether it's a case of true, apparent, or pseudo Lucan Nikia, understanding the underlying issues is key to banishing those pesky white marks. So, next time you spot those mysterious lines on your nails, remember to tread carefully and give your nails the TLC they deserve.
