Todav\u00eda est\u00e1n all\u00ed. Son una zona delicada de la u\u00f1a y se da\u00f1an con facilidad, por lo que es mejor ocultarlas bajo esta piel. Son m\u00e1s comunes en los pulgares ya que los pulgares s\u00f3lo tienen 2 huesos mientras que los dedos tienen 3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00bfPor qu\u00e9 es blanca la l\u00fanula?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Son de color m\u00e1s claro, ya que las c\u00e9lulas modificadas de la piel que crean la u\u00f1a a\u00fan est\u00e1n en proceso de transformaci\u00f3n, lo que se denomina queratinizaci\u00f3n. En este proceso, las c\u00e9lulas vivas pierden su contenido celular para convertirse en c\u00e9lulas ungueales queratinizadas no vivas. La l\u00fanula es el borde de la matriz donde este proceso no se ha completado del todo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00bfPara qu\u00e9 sirve la l\u00fanula?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Es en el borde distal de la matriz donde se crean las c\u00e9lulas ungueales. Las c\u00e9lulas cut\u00e1neas modificadas se queratinizan y se convierten en c\u00e9lulas ungueales no vivas<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00bfLa l\u00fanula significa que mis dedos est\u00e1n sanos?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>La salud de la u\u00f1a no depende de la l\u00fanula visible.
