Download or read book Nail the Diagnosis written by Mark Williams and published by . This book was released on 2017-02-21 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this book is to assist the curious, motivated person in becoming a more perceptive observer of fingernails to improve one's skills in diagnostic examination. The fingernail assessment is an essential part of the physical examination. This approach is especially satisfying when it promptly leads to an accurate diagnosis and to the patient's relief of suffering and distress. It is difficult to overstate the potential utility of this information that is hidden in plain view. This manual is not meant to be an exhaustive compendium. Diagnostic utility and useful observations have been favored over interesting, but useless minutia. The approach is unapologetically personal and shows one person's way to systematically examine and interpret fingernail findings. It is what I use in my daily clinical practice and is not meant to be a comprehensive evidence based review of digital dermatology. My secondary intention is to make the material available to a general audience. Healthcare is changing and the more we know about our own health the more effective we can be in making wise decisions when we interact with healthcare professionals. Fundamental observations refined and prospectively validated through over thirty-five years of active, hands on, clinical practice forms the basis of the work.

Download or read book The Nail in Health and Disease written by N. Zaias and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary intent of this book is to familiarize the medical practitioner with the "nail unit" in a way which will render, correctly and more easily, the diagnosis of nail diseases. At the same time, it serves to encourage the treatment and corrective measures of the ab normalities, if possible, based on anatomical and physiological knowledge. The chapters on anatomy, regeneration, and nail formation are basic to the author's in tent. The content ofthe references quoted represents information which is proven and not controversial material. In addition, my own material not previously published is included. I would like to introduce the anatomical concept that the nail unit consists of four dif ferent epithelial structures, each with its own characteristics, yet all interrelated. These four constituents are the Proximal Nail Fold (PNF), the Matrix (M), the Nail Bed (NB) and the Hyponychium (HYP). A disease may occur in any number of or all nail unit structures. A clear understanding of the anatomy, histology, and tissue kinetics of each constituent will be necessary and is the key factor in interpreting the abnormal findings of each of these constituents as disease occurs. It follows, therefore, that treatment and Cor rective measures should include the knowledge of not only the nail but also of its relation ship to the bony phalanx and the digit.
