Just a scab or something more?

One of my pigs is just getting over ringworm and I noticed today that my other pig (they have never been in the same cage together because the new one got the ringworm right away) has a scab on her back. I don't see any flakes and I haven't noticed her scratching, but before I run off to the vet (which is a 45 minute drive for me) and spend $60+ I wanted to know what you guys think. I've been EXTREMELY careful not to cross contaminate, I've been washing my hands like a maniac.

Also I've checked the rest of her body and I can't find anymore scabs so I definitely don't think it's mites.
