Is the nail vertical line mostly cancer?

The patient's

nails may be rough and deformed as he ages. At this time, there will be nail vertical lines. If there is fungal infection, a small number of vertical lines will form locally, which is not directly related to cancer, and there will be no other uncomfortable symptoms, so it is not cancer. However, if the patient has general weakness, malnutrition, etc., it will lead to insufficient nutrient intake of peripheral skin, nail bed and other parts, and cause vertical lines. If the cancer-related examination results are abnormal at this time, it is generally cancer.
