Leuconychia is a white discoloration of the nail secondary to color change in the nail bed.They can occur due to renal disease or hypoalbuminemia.
I would suggest a diagnostic evaluation by a physician to rule out the various conditions.
Treatment will depend on the diagnosis.
Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries.Warm regards.
I cannot confirm anything without examination but it can be due to clubbing of the nails or leconychia(half and half nails).Clubbing is a thickening of the soft tissue beneath the proximal nail plate that results in sponginess of the proximal plate and thickening in that area of the digit.it can be idiopathic(cause not known)or associated with a number of diseases, mostly of the heart and lungs.
