I have noticed a couple smaller similar spots around the area but I%E2%80%99m just concerned because I%E2%80%99m not sure what it is.

Brief Answer:
Cafe au lait macule or large freckle, nothing to worry about

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to ask a doctor service
I have gone through your query and reviewed the attached photograph.
It seems to be either a cafe au lait macule or a large freckle.
Both are benign pigmentary conditions of the skin.
There is nothing to worry about.
Regards
Dr Asmeet
