Hi,
Do not feel sorry for language or grammar problem. Anyway, I think the stain is on child's buttock. Usually there are some stains on body of infants. It may be some infection as ringworm or simple nappy rash.
Take your child to nearest emergency or local doctor as he will observe and examine to make diagnosis. Do not worry.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
