Hi
You seem to be having alopecia areata. This is a common problem where the hair in the area falls and leaves a smooth patch behind. This is a self resolving condition so I the the hair always grow back. However if you want the hair grow back soon then you can see a dermatologist who can examine you and prescribe some creams.
