Mongolian Blue Spot(蒙古斑)

99.5% of Japanese babies (and majority of Mongolian, Korean babies etc.) has blue spot on buttocks. It disappears naturally in 3-5 years

One of my friends who gave birth in England had bad experience about it.
Doctors in England didn't know the Mongolian Blue Spot and they thought it was a stigma because of abuse!
It seems there are many cases like that.

そういえば志門に蒙古斑があるのか気になり、ちょっとお尻を見てみたところ、薄いものが左側にだけあるようです。
ちなみに、イギリスで出産した友達は、お医者さんが蒙古斑を知らなかったために、虐待によるあざと間違えられて大変だったそうです。
