What does TETTER mean in Scrabble?
noun
archaicmedical
An old term for a skin disease that causes itchy, scaly, or blistered patches, such as eczema or ringworm.
Older medical writing used tetter as a general label for several skin conditions before specific names such as eczema and ringworm became standard. The same texts also used tetter as a verb, meaning to cause such a rash to break out on the skin. Though it survives in historical and literary writing, modern medicine no longer uses tetter as a diagnostic term.
