Brief Answer:
A photo would be helpful

Detailed Answer:
Hi Carole,

A photo of the condition in question would be helpful. However, as he was born with it, it is most likely a coccygeal or sacral pit, which is a completely benign congenital condition. Nothing to worry about or fix.

Hope this helps. Please let me know if you have further questions.
