What Do White Spots Under The Finger Nails Indicate?

my 15 year old son who is healthy has recently had white spots appear under two of his fingernails on his left hand. I asked him if he had accidentally hit his fingers and he answered no. He is not in any pain and the fingernails are not cracked or flaking any thoughts ? Thanks
