A weal is a sore or other mark on the skin. Don't pick up that hot pan without an oven mitt — it will burn you and leave a red weal on your hand.
Think of a weal as the painful-looking mark on the skin. In medicine, weal means an itchy, raised rash: “The weals on his neck make me think he's allergic to cats.” This noun also has a completely different meaning: it can refer to a state of being content and prosperous, especially when discussing society as a whole. These two meanings of weal have different roots.
