If you are talking about on the actual surface of the nail, they are called calcium deposits and there is nothing you can do to get rid of them.

it would desire to be calcium deficiency, yet although, it would desire to not be. i've got heard many distinctive critiques. some human beings think of that the white spots are brought about by using hitting your nails quite not user-friendly. I believe them, because of the fact I certainly have an excellent style of calcium in my nutrition recurring and that i nevertheless get them. i've got additionally observed that they often take place after i've got been quite lively...on each and every occasion i'm getting them, I paint my nails, yet there is not any thank you to get them to circulate away as quickly as you have them...infant your nails and see if it makes a distinction! stable success!

It depends on the direction of the white spot and whether or not it is in the nail itself. If it is horizontal and follows your cuticle bed, it could be from pushing your cuticles back, if they are horizontal and don't follow your cuticle bed exactly, it could be a magnesium deficiency (which could be corrected by a calcium, magnesium supplement, or eating foods with this in them. One way to get a better idea of whether or not it is a magnesium deficiency is to look at your diet, do you crave chocolate? Chocolate is very high in magnesium, and typically when it is craved (around women's menstrual cycle), it is because of a deficiency. I would start by looking into these aspects.

they usually occur because you don't have enough calcium in your body and they just drigger to show your body that u need outside sources for it. Its mostly happens in younger children with development. the only way is to wait untill the rest of the nail growns out... and for now u can just paint it with some pretty color:)
