Sometimes it is linked with some conditions like tuberous scelorosis. but im not saying you have this .
Do you have psoriasis? This can cause ridges and pitting in the nails


Best wishes
The ridges are caused by a lack of certain minerals in the diet. Sometimes age is the cause, and perhaps in your case medication. There are products you can buy to help. Try Healthspan - Hair and Nails.
Could be the pills but doubtful. Sometimes it's down to age. I've got 'em on my nails but then I'm no spring chicken!
