Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to HCM
Thanks for posting your query.
Herpes infection wouldn't be present like patches and not persist for weeks together. It manifests with vesicles and ulcerations and would heal within a week or two. Your patch could be due to Some non venereal skin conditions like fungal infection, insect Bite allergy etc. You can upload the picture of the lesion or better consult a Dermatologist for further help
