After seeing her dermatologist, Kim panics when she researches the condition on the internet and realises her entire body could end up covered in the painful patches.
'My career is doing ad campaigns and swimsuit photo shoots,' the 30-year-old cries. 'People don't understand the pressure on me to look perfect.'
The hereditary disease was passed down to Kim from her mother Kris Jenner.
'I got it for the first time when I was exactly your age,' Kris tells her distraught daughter. 'I cried myself to sleep for months.'
Kim's doctor tells her the condition is incurable, and the best way to manage it is to lead a 'slower-paced life.'
But she is adamant, saying: 'It's just not possible.'
In the episode, filmed in April, Kim starts to panic about an ad campaign for Skechers Shape Ups, for whom she is a spokesperson.
As her main source of income is from modelling and red carpet appearances, Kim is certain her career has come crashing down around her.
Kim accuses her mother, who also acts as her manager, of just wanting her ten per cent commission.
After storming out, Kris waits nervously at the shoot the following day, not knowing if Kim will arrive.
With 200 crew members waiting and five minutes to spare, the reality star finally arrives, and after managing to cover the rash in make-up, completes the shoot.
