What is this yellow thing at the end of my Fittonia’s leaf? It feels crinkly, should I cut it off?

It might help if you show the entire plant to see the overall health. There are spots on the leaves as well. It could indicate a watering issue. It’s hard to tell just looking at the leaf tip.

My fittonia does that too, I believe it’s a humidity thing.

It will continue to discolor where you cut it…remove the leaf altogether to promote some new growth
