Hello! I need help identifying this coral and if I have an issue. It didn't always have the red spot on it.

This looks like a single micromussa or blastomussa polyp to me, assuming it is "puffy" / fleshy

as @TX_REEF said, it looks like it could be a micromussa or a blasto. could also be a single polyp of acanthastrea. could we see a picture with light?

Micromussa has smaller corallites and a coenosarc that forms a lip over the theca, and Blactomussa (in the hobby at least) are phaceloid, not plocoid/cerioid. Acanthastrea has circular corallites and concentric wrinkles/folds on its flesh, so it wouldn't be that either.
