A decrease in blood supply to the nails impairs their growth because nails require a steady supply of nutrients and oxygen delivered through the bloodstream to support cellular metabolism and proliferation. Poor circulation reduces the availability of these essential resources, leading to slower nail growth and potential weakening of the nail structure. Additionally, compromised blood flow can hinder the removal of waste products, further affecting nail health and growth.
