A nail disease, or onychosis, refers to any disorder or deformity of the nails. Although nails are produced by the skin and function as skin appendages, nail diseases are classified separately due to their unique characteristics. These conditions exhibit specific signs and symptoms that can differ significantly from other skin-related issues. Nail diseases can range from infections and fungal conditions to genetic disorders and systemic diseases that manifest in the nails. Proper diagnosis often requires collecting nail clippings and analyzing them in a sterile container to identify the underlying cause and determine the appropriate treatment.
