Brief Answer:
yes this looks like a rash

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
This does look like a rash. I see from your prior consult that you are pregnant and the lesions are somewhat itchy and burn when you wipe.
This can be anything from a simple irritation of the skin to a more serious infection like herpes.
It is more important to find out the cause since you are pregnant.
Please see your doctor as soon as possible.
We cannot give you an exact diagnosis until you are seen for an exam and to get some testing done to determine the cause of the rash.
Please see your doctor as soon as possible.
Let me know if you have further questions.
