Do you mean prefix or suffix?

The prefix is what comes before the root word, and in this case it would be 'derma-' which comes from the Latin word for skin.

There is a suffix in the word too:  -itis is usually used for medical conditions, and often corresponds to symptoms of swelling, infection or irritation. Take from example bronchitis or gengivitis.
