Structure of Nails | Anatomy of Nail | Appendages of Skin | Dermatology | Structure and Function

The structure of nail is divided into six parts: root, nail bed, nail plate, eponychium, paronychium, and hyponychium. Each of these six components has a specific function, and if a component of the nail structure is disrupted, the nail can look abnormal.
A healthy fingernail has the function of protecting the distal phalanx, the fingertip, and the surrounding soft tissues from injuries. It also serves to enhance precise delicate movements of the distal digits through counter-pressure exerted on the pulp of the finger.The nail then acts as a counter-force when the end of the finger touches an object, thereby enhancing the sensitivity of the fingertip,although the nail itself has no nerve endings. Finally, the nail functions as a tool enabling, for instance, a so-called "extended precision grip" (e.g. pulling out a splinter in one's finger), and certain cutting or scraping actions.
