Itchy, red, swollen skin caused by exposure to the cold.
I *think* it might be one of those nouns that usually only exists in the plural (like "trousers") and I'm wondering if that might be why Spelling Bee didn't like it in the singular, but I could be completely wrong about that.

That's a very good point, and one that I will remember next time I'm justifying another pen purchase.
