is it possible for a herpes sore to last for 4 months? if not could it be anything else which i should be worried about.

i went to my clinic about a month ago, and they said it wasnt herpes, but just scatch. its the same scratch i had around my urethra from before, sort of looks like a paper cut, but doesnt ooze or hurt. the nurse said i shouldnt worry about it cause herpes doesnt last that long.

was gonna go get a herpes select blood test, but got fined 200 for parking so im broke again.

It's not Herpes. It's not possible that a sore lasts that long and you already got professional advice saying that it's not herpes. Is it a wart? It can be due to many other things.

Also, if you don't have money for a herpes test, you can always go to Planned Parenthood (if you're in the US). They offer herpes tests at a great discount.
