What are the reasons for white spots on nails?

Patient's question:

I have always been in good health and pay close attention to physical exercise. Recently, I noticed white spots on my nails. My friend said it might be due to calcium deficiency, so I bought calcium supplements, but they didn't help. Before, it was only on one finger, but now it's on all my fingers. It doesn't hurt or itch, and it doesn't interfere with eating dinner or taking afternoon naps.
What kind of assistance is needed: Hello, what could be the reason for white spots on the nails? How can it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Nails are easily damaged due to long-term exposure, such as fingers getting stuck in door gaps, nails being pushed or bumped.
