Hi,
Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic.
It is looking like a café-au-lait spot which is a normal skin spot if it is present a single lesion.
Some time skin pigmentations and fungal infections also present like this.
Physical examination is needed to diagnose the condition.
Consult the dermatologist for examination and treatment.
Hope I have answered your query.
Regards.
