Can you be a bit more descriptive? A "strange spot" could be anything from an area preparing to shed to a wound to a fungal infection. Better yet, can you d/l a picture of it somewhere and post the pic/link in a message here?

Best,
michele

Based on what you have described I would suggest you go to the below link and check out the descriptions and pictures. If it is a fungal infection, catching and treating it early is very good.

Best,
