We have the same thing happening with our baby's belly button.
Our pediatrician called that tatooing. He said we could leave it and eventually it would fade away or we could gently clean it with rubbing alcohol (10%) twice a day for a few days.

It's normal, just left over from the cord part that fell off. It'll go away. As long as it's not red or puffy like an infection, it's nothing to worry about.
