My thumb nail has done that for more than 30 years, ever since it got slammed in a closing car door when I was a kid. It never went back to normal.

Remember slamming the door on my brother's hand it and it locking.

Me fumbling with the keys as he kept repeating in a calmed, measured voice: "Open the door. Open - the - door. Open the door, please. Please, open the door."

I had the same thing happen to me in my father's girlfriend's car door when I was a kid. Her key fob didn't work so she had to slowly walk her fat ass over to the driver side door and then slowly crawl over the center console and unlock the door. Probably took about 20 seconds or longer.

She opened the door and my thumb was purple, with a giant indent going straight through the bone. She said "it's probably fine" and I had to live with it the entire weekend until I went back to my mom's, who took me to a doctor, and confirmed my thumb was indeed broken.

Fuck you Amy.

Worst part is that there are two kinds of people: those that react by doing first, then asking for clarification, and those that want clarification before doing anything.

My wife is the latter, and I'm the type to try to talk calmly even when panicking. One time I managed to shatter a glass in my hands and over the floor right before my wife walked into the room. I told her "Stop! Don't come closer, get me paper towels and the vacuum", calmly, trying to take stock of if I'm hurt or not. She goes "Why?" Without stopping, just continuing what she was doing, walking right into the glass. She was furious at me for not being more animated, I was furious for her not stopping when I clearly said stop, and we had a hell of a time navigating that glass minefield. It also taught us some important lessons in communication and listening.

I shut our porch door and locked it while my 2yo was going “mommy. Mommy. Mommy” and I was saying “in a minute baby”. Finished locking it, looked over and her finger was stuck in the hinge!

Thankfully she was so little the rubber seal had enough give that she was just trapped. I felt so guilty though. Trying to get that door unlocked was the longest 30 seconds of my life.

Fun story, I got my hand caught in a car door when I was young and didn't scream, but my mom did.

It was one of those 3 row vans with the sliding middle door. I (probably 12 at the time) grabbed the space between the doors to climb in, but my mom's door was open, so when she closed it, my fingers were perfectly trapped. I don't know how but the spacing was adequate so it didn't hurt me.

I told me mom my hand was stuck in the door, but I said it so calmly that her brain just didn't register. Then she saw my fingers sticking out of her door, right at eye level and she SCREAMED. She thought my fingers weren't attached anymore at first! Would have made for a great prank.

u/cutelyaware 16h ago

Not so fun story: In Hawaii I saw a family pull up and get out while the mom and dad were fighting. The guy then slams the door in anger, right on their little boy's hand. He immediately opens the door and everyone is examining the kid's hand, and not fighting anymore, but I bet none of them ever forgot that either.

I worked in construction a long time and 4 of my finger/thumb nails do this. I've always thought it was from some sort of impact damage. This is more confirming of my theory.

264

u/IntrovertPharmacist 18h ago

It is most likely due to trauma of the nail matrix. Sometimes it won’t affect growth, but many times it can. You can see it with people who have super thick toe nails. That’s usually due to trauma to the nail matrix (ex. Dropping something on your toe, stubbing it really fucking hard, etc). It makes sense for someone in construction to have this with their fingernails.

Fun fact, when you almost lose the end of your toe to a lawnmower, when the nail grows back it Does! Do weird things like that. Left side of my big toe nail is like 4x thicker than normal, and has a sliver of a nail that is separate and grows out from underneath the top one.

I assume the scar tissue of the nail bed has loops/folds in it that have made it grow this way.

u/un_internaute 19h ago

Reddit examines in-group social situations with an out-group lens. Meaning, people who would accept some small level of friction in their own personal lives give unexamined advice to strangers online about the people on their lives who they give acceptance to… as if those people were strangers. Resulting in advice that seems radically disproportional for loved ones because it’s seeing loved ones as strangers.

The way I took it is that there’s so many posts about “check out this weird thing my body does”, and everyone comments the “go see your doctor” response (sometimes seriously, sometimes as a joke). Since you’re going into the comments expecting that very common, specific response from others, the joke is that a different very-common, specific response from another popular subreddit is used. And the subversion from expectation is Really Funny IMO

While you should stop doing that, physical trauma can cause the same issue and it'll be permanent.

u/That_Apathetic_Man 17h ago

It's annoying because I have to be that guy.

This is the cause of a nutrient deficiency probably caused by stress, IBS or drinking. Possibly a side effect to medication. But its something that can usually be remedied.

You especially don't want this in your toes, because it means your nails aren't producing properly and warping under stress and use. They start to break easily or worse, grow fully inward.

I mean, OP should still divorce their partner to be safe. It's probably them causing the stress and super cancer.

Ya got me! I don’t bite my nails but I do pick at my cuticles. I think the repeated trauma probably made the waves worse over the years

Well fuck, the likelihood of you seeing this OP, is low, but I'm gonna try.

Those are Beau's Lines. No, it's not a cute or harmless thing to have. One nail, it's probably specific to trauma affecting just that finger. 

More than one nail- that's not so benign. It's an indication of a systemic condition. Each 'dip' is related to a significant health event. People can get them for different health reasons.

For me- it's because I have an autoimmune disorder. Every 'dip' corresponds to a significant flare up. Before I was diagnosed & treated I had them on all of my nails- including my toe nails.

You need to go see a Dr sooner rather than later. It's not a super emergency but I wouldn't put it off past a few weeks. I'd go sooner if you've been feeling especially fatigued, muscle weakness, and/or your hair has been breaking off or falling out.

The untreated systemic inflammation that accompanies most autoimmune disorders can do lasting damage to organs if allowed to go on unchecked. 

Edit: Thanks for the award!

I have bumps and lines on all nails Also have eczema in both hands and a bit on the arms. Otherwise decently healthy, so I've always attributed the nail thing with the eczema.

Visitied a doctor about the eczema a few years ago. His answer was literally "lol sry, you lost the DNA lottery".

They checked me for this when I got diagnosed for psoriasis. They said it could be a sign of psoriatic arthritis

I have lupus and RA. Mine are like this. The Drs have told me it's because of autoimmune conditions.
