I have a hamster and I was cleaning it yesterday and I found a black and red spot on his back. What is it?

Question

I thought the spot was a sign of death, because my other hamster had it and then it died a month later. I don't want to go to the vet because it costs to much. Do you know what it is and how to treat it?
