Thicker horizontal stripes on the nail are called ‘Beau lines’ and while not usually harmful, ‘nail discoloration in the nail bed can be a symptom of a type of cancer called subungual melanoma’.
Cleveland Clinic also speaks about the symptoms to look out for, and it details: “It usually appears as a dark, vertical (top to bottom) streak on your nail. Subungual melanoma is rare but serious. This type of skin cancer – called acral lentiginous melanoma – is an aggressive form of melanoma.”

Hopefully, it’s good news for the Redditor!
