 Information 1.1 NAIL DISEASES AND DISORDER

Nails can reveal signs to your overall health. Have you noticed some
abnormalities in your fingernails? There are problems in the liver, lungs and
heart that can show up in your nails. Do you bite your nails? Watch out and
learn what your nails will reveal.
Nail diseases are conditions of both the nail, and the surrounding skin
which result from bacterial, fungal and viral infections. Some conditions will
show a green, yellow or black discoloration of the nail, depending on the
nature of the infection. The main cause of infection is through damaged
cuticles and broken skin.
Many disorders can affect the nails. These can affect any portion of the
nail unit and can impact the appearance of the nail plate itself.
Diseases may be considered contagious or non-contagious. A disease
can become contagious or communicable when it spreads from one person to
another by direct or indirect contact. Some of the common contagious
diseases are tuberculosis, Common colds, ringworm, scabies, head lice, and
virus infection.
Coughing and sneezing, uncleaned hands, eating utensils and salon
equipment play a role in spreading diseases. Diseases that are not able to be
spread from one person to person considered are non-contagious. Genetic
diseases, cancers, mental disorder, autoimmune diseases and heart diseases
are some of the many diseases that are not contagious.
Given below is a list of the few important nail diseases and disorders and their
characteristics.

NAIL DISORDER CHARACTERISTICS

1. Blue nails It is bluish in color, may be attributed
to poor blood circulation or heart
disorder.

It is a vertical splitting or separation of

2. Brittle nails the nail plate layers at the distal (free)
edge of the nail plate. Over exposure to
detergent soap and other chemical
solvents may attribute to the effect.

7
3. Bruised nail It shows dark purplish (almost black or
brown) spots in the nail. This is usually
due to injury and bleeding of the nail
bed. As the nail grows, dried blood in
the nail bed will also go out.

nails nailbed and curves at the free edge. It

systemic or nervous origin.

5. Furrows These are long ridges that run either

lengthwise or across the nail. Some
lengthwise ridges are normal in adults.
These ridges increase with age and can
also be caused by psoriasis, poor
circulation and frostbite. Ridges that
run across the nail are caused by high
fevers, pregnancy & measles.

splits around the nail. Carelessness in
removing the cuticle, dryness, cutting
off too much may result in hangnails.
It may cause infection if not treated.

7. Leconychia White spot appears frequently in the

or white spot nails. They may be caused by injury to
the base of the nail. As the nail
continues to grow, these white spots
eventually disappear.
8. Pterygium It is an overgrowth of cuticle which
sticks to the surfaces of nail plate.
Carefully remove the adhering growth
by means of a cuticle nipper.

9. It is describe as wasting away of the

Onychatrophia nail. The nail loses its luster, shrinks
and falls. This can be caused by injury
to the nail matrix or by internal
disease.

8
10. It is an overgrowth of the nail usually
Onychauxis or in thickness rather than length. It is
hypertrophy caused by an internal imbalance, such
as local infection or heredity.

11. It is a deformity of nail plate caused by

Onychophagy biting nails. It is an acquired nervous
or bitten nail habit which prompts the individual to
chew the nail or the hardened cuticle.

 Nail Diseases Characteristics Nail Diseases Characteristics
1. Onychomycosis It is an infectious disease caused
by a vegetable parasite. The onset
of the disease takes about two to
three months and the attack is
rarely on more than one or two
nails. The appearance of the nail
is frayed (worn out), brittle with
furrowed surface, opaque,
grayish, or yellowish in color and
is lifted-up by an accumulation of
epidermis underneath.
It also known as tinea ungums or
ringworm of the nails.
2. Onychia Is a term applicable to chronic
inflammation of the nail fold and
nail bed (matrix). It results from
the introduction of microscopic
pathogen through small wounds.

3. It is referred to ingrown nails

Onychocryptosis which affect the fingers and
toenails. It is marked by nail
growth into surrounding tissues
and may cause infection.
Incorrect trimming or shaping of
nails are often responsible for
ingrown nails.
4. Onychoptosis It is the periodic shedding of one
or more nails, either in the whole
or in part. This condition maybe a
symptom of a more alarm disease
such as syphilis or can result
from fever, trauma systematic
upset or adverse reaction to drug.
5. Onycholysis It refers to the detachment/
loosening of the nail from the nail
bed, starting at its distal and/or
lateral attachment. The most
common cause of onycholysis is
psoriasis.

10
6.Onychogryphosis It pertains to extreme thickening
or claw nails curvature of the nails, usually it
is caused by varying degree of
hyperkeratosis (skin disease in
which the skin gets thicker) on
the distal portion of the nail bed
that detaches and lifts the plate
off the bed.
7. Paronychia An inflammation of the skin
around the nail caused by
bacteria. The symptoms are
redness, swelling, and tenderness
of the tissue surrounding the nail.

❖ Self-Check 01:

Direction: Answer the following question briefly.

Question Answer
1. Take a look at your hands. Do
you have misshapen nails? If so,
which of these? Describe.

2. Have you experienced having

any of those skin diseases or
disorder? What did you do to
resolve your skin
problems/diseases?

Congratulations! You are already familiar with the different skin

and nail diseases and disorders.
It is now the right time to understand the characteristics of a healthy
skin and healthy nails.

1. Information 1.3 A Healthy skin and Healthy nail

A healthy skin is slightly moist, soft, and pliable (elastic); it is free from
disease and disorder and has a glow. To remain healthy, the skin must
maintain acid balance.
This acid condition is called an acid mantle which prevents the
growth of disease-causing bacteria on the skin. The acid mantle is made up
of a mixture of sweat and sebum (oil) from the skin.
The acid mantle of a healthy skin is said to have a pH of 5.5-5.6.
Acidity and alkalinity are measured by a number called the pH (potential
Hydrogen). Products used in manicuring/pedicuring are categorized as
alkaline or acid.

13
 Manicurists/pedicurists must be aware of the acidity and alkalinity
of the products they use during and after manicuring. Alkaline products
disturb the acid mantle of the skin causing it to become sensitive and
irritated and exposed to bacteria. A product is considered to have an acid
balance when it has a pH of 0-7; a product is alkaline when it has a pH of
7-14. Soap is alkaline having a pH of 9. Therefore, manicurist/pedicurists
should avoid over exposure of client’s hands and nails to soap or any other
alkaline product.
A healthy nail, which is an outgrowth of the skin, should be firm,
flexible and appear slightly pink in colour. It has a smooth surface and is
slightly curved. The average nail growth is .3125 cm per month.

❖ Self-check 02:
