Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
Ideally you need to be examined clinically. However, that is beyond the scope of this online discussion. If you could ask somebody to take a look (by browsing through the hair) and check if there is any inflammation over the mentioned area. It is possible that you have a fungal infection. If that is the case, application of candid (clotrimazole) lotion topically twice or thrice daily should help. If it does not, it is better to visit a general physician or a dermatologist and to get a clinical examination done.
