Terry's Nails in toes

[PRobinson]

Hi folks, I have Terry's Nails in my toes, I have fatty liver. Is this something that can happen with fatty liver or does it always mean a more advanced condition?

I stubbed my big toe today, and the area around the nail and at the lanula/moon has bruised, but the solid white colour on the nail remains white.

I don't think we have had that question before and I don't know that anyone will know for sure. Just my opinion here, but the nail bed is primarily a protein process so I suspect that it has as much to do with your digestive efficiency overall so while linked to liver status I think it can have a lot of uncertainty about cause and effect. On average the blood flow between hands and feet can be quite different so that probably enters into it as well. Not very helpful I know.

Thank you. It's odd, that I have them in my toenails, but not my fingernails.

My US showed fatty liver, and my Fib-4 bloods was 0.8, so nothing else points to anything worse.
