One of my boys has a tiny little bald patch on his nose. Its really small like he scratched His nose on something. He's had it about two weeks now. I thought it was just a scratch and i would keep and eye on it. It's hasn't got any bigger at all but doesn't seem to be going away. Would it have got bigger if it was fungal? Could it be a scar?
 
As it is not going away, I would recommend to have it checked by a vet. It could be fungal, as a wound would have healed by now.
 
I've been trying to get one but he's my squirmiest pig. I will have another go now
 
He doesn't scratch it or anything I can just see there is slightly less hair in that place.
 
It's difficult to tell. I would get a vet to check it out in case it is fungal.
 
Ok. Will have a look in the vet finder. I'm located in leeds west Yorkshire if anyone can recommend one?
 
On closer inspection I believe it has got better but I would have expected it to disappear quicker.
