Can you let me know if it's safe to get a COVID vaccine while I'm on isotretinoin? I'm a little worried about how the medication might interact with the vaccine. Is there anything specific I should be aware of or do before scheduling my shot?

So, I'm a 32-year-old guy and a couple of days ago, my finger got pinched in a door. It was just a tiny part of the skin, so I didn't pay much attention at the time. But then yesterday, I noticed this black spot on that same part of my finger, like under the skin. Do you think it could be a blood clot or is there something else going on here?

Yes, it is smashed finger and black spot caused by blood clot. It will be absorbed with time.
