Tinea Corporis: There are several possible reasons for this problem. One of the reasons could be a skin fungal infection called tinea. It can cause hair loss and skin redness. Anti fungal skin cream can often clear up mild cases. But you really should go to your doctor or dermatologist to make sure the diagnosis is correct because it could be something different.
