Hi
Thanks for being at HealthcareMagic
I have reviewed the attached photograph and it seems to be genital melanosis which is a benign condition though there is a rare possibility of it being a melanoma.
I would recommend you to consult a doctor and get it examined clinically along with dermoscopic examination of the lesion to confirm the exact etiology.
Regards
Dr Asmeet
