Sometimes words change meaning a lot over time. The PIE word for tear eventually became the Ancient Greek word meaning to skin an animal and then went on to become the word for the skin itself. That is where we get our word dermatology. In English the PIE word for tear eventually became our word for tear so "dermatology" and "tear" are related
