I'm currently an MS2 (soon to be MS3) that is interested in dermatology. When I was 12 I suffered a spinal cord injury that left me with some deficits in the muscles of my hands. The thenar muscles in particular are the weakest. This has not presented an issue thus far in my medical education. I can do basic suturing without much trouble.
I'm curious as to whether ya'll think that this will present an issue for me in residency and beyond. Do you know any dermatologist with physical disabilities? Is this something I should disclose?
