What does COMEDO mean in Scrabble?
noun
medical
A plug of hardened oily secretion and dead skin that clogs a hair follicle, seen as a blackhead or a whitehead.
The comedo is the basic lesion of acne, and the word comes from the Latin for a glutton, because the plug was once likened to a worm feeding in the skin. Dermatologists distinguish an open comedo, whose tip darkens on contact with air, from a closed one that stays under the surface. The plural is comedones, a form that turns up in skin-care labels.
