See your doctor: The most concerning thing that would result in scab-like vaginal lesions is a genital herpes infection. A virus that is transmitted by sexual contact, a herpes outbreak results in intense itching, sores, and then scabbing. Testing and diagnosis may not be as successful once the lesions have scabbed over, but you should see your doctor for evaluation and testing.Counseling/medication may be helpful
