"I understand your concern about the ultrasound probe not being cleaned. For issues related to potential infections or skin problems, it's best to consult with a dermatologist or a specialized clinic that deals with these concerns. They can provide a thorough examination and address any risks. If you have further questions or need guidance on finding the right specialist, feel free to reach out. Take care!"

Hi. Nothing to worry about here. It is possible that they cleaned it just after the previous patient was examined and you didn't see it.
Ideally, they should have used a disposable barrier.
But don't worry. For now, you can monitor the genital area for any rashes or ulcers. And report to a General Physician/Dermatologist at the earliest if you see any.
