A rash complaint (8)
I believe the answer is:
impetigo
This might be a double definition.
'a rash' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both states of affairs as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'complaint' is the second definition.
(impetigo is a kind of health problem)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for impetigo that I've seen before include "unsightly condition" , "I omit peg to get the childhood skin infection" , "Contagious skin disease causing spots and yellow crusts" , "Contagious skin disease causing crusted spots" , "sickness" .)
