Sacral Dimple - need checking?

My now 3.5 year old was born with a sacral dimple. Checked at birth and was considered nothing to worry about.

It looks like it’s getting a bit bigger now though, which obviously could just be because he’s getting bigger/skin growing etc. but I do wonder if it should be being monitored by a GP?

Has anyone experience with sacral dimples and how normal it is for them to change over time? And in my shoes would you be booking a GP appointment?

Yes I would get that checked. If he's got no symptoms of bowel or bladder issues, it's probably all good but I still would get it checked.
