6.Detached Nails

Onycholysis is when nails separate from the nail bed. It can be caused by medication or harsh chemicals, but sometimes points to thyroid problems. It usually starts at the nail tip and moves toward the cuticle, creating a white or opaque area. Other causes include psoriasis, fungus, injury, and some medicines, especially tetracycline antibiotics. Frequent manicures or long exposure to water can worsen it. Treatment depends on the cause but often means keeping nails dry and clean, avoiding triggers, and letting nails grow out. For thyroid-related cases, treating the underlying problem is key.
