Back at the end of November Shelby developed what the vet said was a Hot Spot, he was given an anti-inflammatory injection and it cleared up in a few days but he is now left with a bald spot on his back.

Do you think the hair will ever grow back?

it should, it looks like a pustule my guy gets when he has an allergic reaction, it takes a while for the hair for grow back, one time he got scratched by a dog at a park and it took like 3 months.

There are lots of things that could be.... ring worm comes to mind. A staph infection perhaps.
I would go to the vet....

Colt's little spot of Demadex Mange looks exactly like that. Did they do a scraping? I thought his was a hotspot too.
