Flattering photos below (hopefully attached). It’s lower spine and isn’t rough/textured and doesn’t hurt when pressed. Any ideas?

Could be a herald mark? But looks more like a bruise of some sort? Hang on will Google the name of the rash that starts with the herald mark. It's harmless.

Thanks! It just came up overnight. No real change in diet but did feel a little under the weather the week before

It looks like a carpet burn, could you have pinched it in your sleep?
