it's very low risk.

have you been seen regularly for your symptoms? did they do any testing on you?

also scabs in the genital area, usually present differently from a scab on the knee. The skin is different and what we call a scab is actually a stage of healing, not a scabby looking thing like you get when you fall on your knees.

Definetely not herpes it would take upto 2-3 weeks max to heal up if it was herpetic. It could have been another bacterial/vuralinfection or  genital ulcer /bump that is not herpes related

That might be syhilis, Did it have fluid in it? Did it ulcerate? You should go see you doctor immediately before it disappears.
