Definition
Plural of comedo; multiple clogged pores in the skin containing dead skin cells and oil.
Etymology
Plural of 'comedo,' formed using the standard Latin/medical English pluralization. In Latin, 'comedo' forms its plural as 'comedones,' maintaining classical medical terminology conventions.
Kelly Says
Dermatologists use the Latin plural comedones in formal writing, but people say 'comedos' in casual conversation—this shows how medicine keeps classical languages alive even as we modernize them!
