Brief Answer:
Kindly provide clinical photograph

Detailed Answer:
Dear Ms

Thanks for writing back to me. From the short term description given its unlikely to be serious. Close contact with other individual could spread it. I would suggest you to get back to me with clinical photograph.

Also kindly provide me with the following additional information

1. Is there associated itching?
2. Where is the exact location of rash
3. Are you sexually active ?
4. Do you have urinary complaints like increased frequency ot burning sensation while passing urine?

Awaiting your response

Take care
