Skin affliction (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

acne

'skin affliction' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for acne that I've seen before include "Skin rash" , "(Inflammation causing) spots" , "Inflammation of glands in skin" , "Skin spots" , "Skin affliction" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the Sydney Morning Herald.
