Hello Sreyagh, none of us are qualified to comment on photographs and if you have a concern about your liver or health in general you need to see a doctor to get some blood tests done.

Even though you have never drank or smoked you can still have liver issues and in India and the Asian continent there are various non-alcohol related conditions that are more prevalent than here in the UK. The viral hepatitis conditions are particularly prevalent there so some blood tests will be able to check for those.

Sorry we can't offer any sort of diagnosis on a forum but hope you do have access to a doctor.

Best wishes, Katie

Hi,

Whilst we appreciate you are concerned, our rules do ask that photos are not posted. No one is medically qualified to assess or comment on your nails.

As Katie has already said on this thread, it is important that you see a doctor, discuss your concerns and have some liver tests.

Best wishes.
