Thanks for your query at HCM!
As you have got tested for HIV and syphilis it is certain that there is no chance of the disease at all.
Was there any history of trauma?
You probably might had genital herpes, molluscum contagiosum or some bacterial infection.
Trauma, Behcet's disease, Stevens-Johnson syndrome and carcinoma are non-infective causes of genital ulceration.
I suggest you can get tested for a repeat test for HSV 1 and 2 if your problem recurs. Otherwise I see no cause to worry you are safe.
Sometimes genital ulcer is provoked by swimming also.
I hope I was of help.
Take care!
