Question: Hi Sir,
Hope you are doing fine.
Today while giving my daughter oil massage, I have observed some blue spots on her back. The big one on bum was there from the she is born. But small ones on the back, I observed them today only. They were not there last week/before. Can you please check the attached images and let me know if there is any need to take her to pediatrician. Her age is 3 months 3 days.

Brief Answer:
These are Mongolian spots - do not worry

Detailed Answer:
Hello... Thank you for the trust and confidence in me. I am fine and hope you are fine too.
These are also Mongolian spots and you need not worry about them at all.
As the baby grows up they will eventually disappear completely.
Best regards - Dr Sumanth Amperayani
