Hello,
It may be an Angioma or Nevus. Until examination is done, it is difficult to say what it is.
If it is Nevus, then nothing to worry, and if it is Angioma and increasing size, then consult your pediatrician so that he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
