Sounds like a question for...
"Super-Vet"!!!!!
Call your local veterinarian doctors office, and schedule an appointment. It could be a variety of things which will most likely require more attention.
Besides... your cat will probably be a lot happier as well!

I had a cat that did that. It is caused form her being stressed out. Take her to the vet, and they will give you medican help it stop licking the spot and the hair will grow back.

It sounds like he has a stress problem. You need to talk to your vet so the vet can examine him and see what can be done. Maybe you can figure out when he licks and if it is caused by some specific kind of stress, like him being alone, or something like that.

One of my senior cats was doing just that; and it turned out to be the stress of a newcomer kitty in the house. My vet put her on some kind of kitty tranquilizer for a week, and she stopped. I would take him to the vet to make sure there aren't any skin problems. Have you checked for fleas, mites or ticks?

Try giving him a bath in a mild baby shampoo. If this doesn't work try putting alittle bit of olive oil on your hands and smoothing it over the cat. He/she probably has dry skin. If it continues, call a vet.

Seek veterinary medical attention for your cat A.S.A.P. Your cat could be having an allergic reaction or may have contracted a skin disease, parasite or other ailment. Don't delay, your vet knows best.

yes, your cat needs to see a vet! could be allergies, thyroid problems, stress, etc - treatment will depend on what's causing the problem & the vet's the best qualified to figure out the cause and prescribe the treatment-
