pityriasis
Danh từ
This term is a clinical designation used primarily in dermatology to describe a specific morphology of skin lesions. It carries a neutral, medical register and is rarely used in casual conversation, where patients might instead describe their condition as "flaky skin" or "dry patches."
As a medical condition referring to a pathological state of the skin, the term is treated as an uncountable noun. It does not have a plural form in standard clinical usage, as it describes the disease process rather than individual instances of the disorder.
