Relating to, caused by, or characteristic of botryomycosis or the bacterium Botryomyces.
From botryomycosis + -ic (adjective-forming suffix). Creates the adjectival form for describing infections or lesions associated with this disease.
Adding '-ic' to disease names transforms them into adjectives that doctors can use—'a botryomycotic lesion' is more efficient medical language than 'a lesion caused by botryomycosis,' and these tiny suffixes are how medical language stays compact.
