Small bald patch behind ear

2017-03-28 20:03:07
I recently noticed a small bald patch behind my right ear which i have never seen before. This seems different from male pattern baldness. is it some kind of disease? How can i stop it from spreading? Would the hairs ever grow back?

You could be having some form of localised alopecia. You can consult personally.
