What Causes Hard Discoloured Lump On The Spine Of A Child?

My 5-year-old daughter has had a discolored spot on her spine for about a year that appears to be bulging out more lately. It is hard and doesn t move, as if the vertebra is getting larger. It doesn t cause her pain, but the way it looks is concerning. Any ideas what it could be?
