The Word of the Day is Recrudescence
re·cru·des·cence
/ˌrēkro͞oˈdes əns/
Recrudescence is a noun that means the renewal or reappearance of something, especially something dangerous or unhealthy.
For example, you might describe a sudden increase in racist attacks as a recrudescence.
Or, medically, a flare-up of disease symptoms after a temporary remission.
