    horizontal grooves on nails indicating disrupted growth

    Beau's lines are horizontal grooves or indentations that appear across the nails, indicating a temporary disruption in nail growth. These lines can result from various factors, including severe illness, malnutrition, chemotherapy, or trauma to the nail matrix, and they often provide clues about the timing and duration of the underlying condition.
