A spot or discoloration of the skin, neither raised nor sunken, is a:

Papule
Nodule
Macule
Wheal

The correct answer is: Macule

A spot or discoloration of the skin that is neither raised nor sunken is known as a macule. This differs from other skin lesions such as papules, which are small raised bumps, or nodules, which are larger and deeper bumps. A wheal is a raised red bump caused by an allergic reaction. So, none of the other options are correct because they all involve a visible elevation of the skin, whereas a macule is a flat discoloration.
