6. Detached Nails

Onycholysis, or nail separation from the nail bed, can result from medications, harsh chemicals, or thyroid problems. It usually starts at the tip and moves toward the cuticle, creating an opaque or white area due to air under the nail. Other causes include psoriasis, fungal infections, trauma, and certain medications like tetracycline antibiotics. Frequent manicures or prolonged water exposure can worsen the condition. Treatment involves keeping nails dry and clean, avoiding aggravating activities, and allowing the nail to grow out naturally. For cases linked to systemic diseases like thyroid issues, treating the underlying condition is essential."
