Spoon shaped nails

My DS2 has spoon shaped, concave toenails, especially on his big toes. His little toenails are almost non existent. They've always been this way. Is this something I should raise with the GP? I've seen that in adults it can mean iron deficiency. It just seems far too minor to make an appointment about. Thanks.

They look perfectly normal to be, like all my DCs nails when they were little.

Spoon shaped nails are a really specific thing

My children’s nails always looked like that and they sort of ‘normalised’ when they were about 3 years old.
