Why is the moon from my cuticles receding toward the tips of my nails?

What does this mean? I am 57,African American women. Just had blood work, and everything looks fine, but asked doctor about nail and he said see a dermotologist. (Da) ! wow, I would like some information, and where to start getting help. Thanks

Finger nails and hair are a clue to overall health. You should ask your doctor. There could be a nutrient you are missing, or you may be taking a medication that is causing this. It's definitely something to ask your doctor about.
