Doctor Says Nerve Damage Is Cause for My Hair Loss

33 yr old female. At the beginning of April 2007 I noticed app a 1-inch area to the left of my part that had lost hair. Completly and it has a red tint to the scalp. The only thing I can remember causing this would be sleeping against a corner of a wall for a period of time. My doctor seems to think it is nerve damage and says it most likely won’t grow back. Do you find this to be true and what would cause the redness? Thank you for your help.

There is no way for me to give you an opinion without seeing you. I have never heard of nerve damage causing hair loss.
