Suggest Medication For A Tiny Black Mole

I just discovered a tiny black mole on my 6 month olds lower back. About one month after he was born I was diagnosed with malignant melanoma, only stage one. I had surgery to remove the cancer but I am now fearful it could have spread to him during my pregnancy.
