So i dont know why i get little aches and pains at the tips of my fingers. They come and go especially since i do type alot on my phone, keyboard, controller for video games. My fingers sometimes feel like theyve expanded , have become swollen, numb, and rarely tingly. However i noticed this line across the nail bed that under the nail and i started to spiral does this look abnormal or am i being a funny person?D30F2125-BEA5-41A0-868A-4E4618609353.jpeg

I‘ve been obsessing over my fingers and nails for a couple of years
You described exactly what I have been feeling lately! Like my fingertips feel swollen almost.

plus I’ve been gettingsome actual swelling in my hands too, but really hoping that’s just related to work.

Do you type and work your hands a lot?

not typing but yes I work with my hands.. it’s just that my weirdness is worse on my left side and I’m right handed :( definitely makes me worry, but kinda happy at least someone else has this in their fingers!?

You're "being a funny person"... :D I know what you mean. I'm a software engineer so computers are life. I get all sorts of weirdness in my fingers and hands. Especially my left hand, because it's not my dominant side thus it's a bit weaker than the right.

I get weird feelings in my fingers (especially the tips) all the time. I also notice it more in my left hand, but am right handed. I am of course no nail expert but your nails look normal to me!
