Spanish term

habonosa

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Allergies, erythema
Hello,

It is a medical term, used with "eritematoso", but there is little explanation about what it can be...

They are lesions, though: "lesiones eritematohabonosas", but "habonosa" is also a single word.

raised rash, raised itchy bumps

habonosa comes from habones, defined as: Como urticaria se conoce un grupo de alteraciones en las cuales existe la formación de habones en la piel. Los habones consisten en erupciones de pequeños milímetros o varios centímetros, de coloración blanca o rojiza, rodeados generalmente de una halo eritematoso y que frecuentemente pican

They are obviously talking about hives here: raised itchy bumps. Habon, habones or habonoso are not given in DRAE. Remember too that Spanish-speaking doctors are much more liable than English-speakers to use technical vocabulary (example from a recent report on my Dad "tiredness" - a Spanish doc would say have said astenia)
