Brief Answer:
Can be a benign bone cyst also.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
A small black spot on the shoulder bone can be due to a benign bone cyst also. It needs to be monitored and you can get an FNAC done to find out the nature of the lesion. Do consult an orthopedician for proper investigations.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
