Brief Answer:
An image will be helpful

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on Health Care Magic.

I would request you to upload an image of the spot using the facility on the upper right side of this page. As such the mark is likely to be a harmless congenital mark. I will also request you to mention the size and ask when you first noticed it. An image would make things clear.

I would await your response.
