Nail can turn different colors for different local or systemic problems. Nails can change color because of infections that involve the nail itself, the bed under
the nail, or the skin around the nail. Most nail infections are fungal infections, but bacterial and viral infections can occur. Bacterial
infections may occur in the cuticle or nail folds (paronychia).
Green nails- are a sign of bacterial infection
Red streaks - in your nail bed are a warning of a heart valve infection
Blueish nails - signal low oxygen levels in your blood
Dull nails - mean a vitamin deficiency
White nails - may signal liver disease, such as hepatitis
Dark stripes at the top (Terry’s nails) - are associated with aging and congestive heart failure
