Fissures, scars, erosions, and cysts are examples of:

Primary lesions
Secondary lesions
Ulcers
Sclerotic lesions

The correct answer is: Secondary lesions

Fissures, scars, erosions, and cysts are classified as secondary lesions in dermatological terms. Secondary lesions are changes that occur in the skin as a result of primary lesions or as the result of external influences, such as infections, scratching, or healing. These lesions can indicate a progression of a disease process or a response to treatment. For instance, when a primary lesion, such as a pustule or blister, breaks down, it can lead to erosions or fissures. Scars develop as a natural part of the healing process when tissue damage occurs, reflecting the body's response to injury. Cysts represent a localized encapsulation of tissue, typically filled with fluid or semisolid material, which can develop as a response to various skin conditions. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for effectively diagnosing and treating skin conditions in a tattoo artist's practice, where skin integrity is especially important.
