Scorpions are fairly hardy little critters. The spot may be an old or recent injury. It can also be related to a recent or coming shed. Keep an eye on it for rapid change or growth. Maintain proper environmental parameters and make sure he is eating and drinking normally. If you need a veterinarian for an exam, you may find one at the link below.
