Poor guy! He really needs to be examined by a vet for a work-up and treatment. He could have a skin infection or an auto-immune disease causing his problems. Your vet can do a culture or skin biopsy to help diagnose and then prescribe medications to help treat his problem. He might need an antibiotic, corticosteroid, or other medications depending on the cause. Hope he feels better soon!
