white sh*t under my finger nails*

it is actually little air pockets under them causing a different look to the nail. They say once the nail grows more, the nail evens out and gets a flatter surface (thats why they go away sometimes).

I get the white spots to on some of my nails. I never knew what it was.

I always thought it was caused by bruising.

i heard that the white spots indicate that you need more vitamins...

I heard the white spots are actually from having too many vitamins. I think it was Zinc. If you have too much zinc your body then it comes out in spots on your fingernails. Sounds like a load of crap to me.

However, if you are talking about the filth that gets under your nails that you have to clean out with the end of a nail file; I reckon that is mostly skin flakes. If you scratch your head then the white skin flakes get under your nails. Same stuff as dandruff. If you don't like it then cut your nails shorter and clean them more often.

i heard that the white stuff was a sign that your body is lacking calcium...i would recommend driking more milk.

It is calcium, you bruise the skin above your nails and you get the while clusters.

it means you are in the late stages of HIV, going on AIDS. sorry.

Make sure you have your facts straight or know how to take a joke before you say stupid sh*t.

because you are young it is the excess from your cuticle growth.

I was told the white spots on your finger nails mean you cant express yourself without saying f**kING sh*t amongst other things.
