Skin Conditions (Yay!)

Nobody likes a skin condition. Let's face it. There aren't too many that are good news. But you know, I think it's important to know these bastards so that we can be informed about our health and the health of those around us. Anyway, I hope you don't get any of these. Good luck on the quiz.
Some terms are more general and others are more specific.
All answers are one word.
