I have 1 black line underneath the fingernail on my thumb and forefinger of my right hand and 1 black line underneath the forefinger of my left hand. Where did these come from or what is the cause?

Does the black line run along the length of the nail rather than across? I assume it does and I believe that it's caused by a small release of blood under the nail, probably caused by a slight trauma to the nail. I don't think it's cause for concern and it will grow out as the nail grows.
