Please help. My degu is acting really funny.?

My degu has always been so nice and loved to be picked up and taken out of his cage.

about the last week He won't even go near people, and squeaks wildly at random times.

I adopted him a while back, he had a tiny scab on his nose, and some small scabs on the tip of his tail. I was concered with them at first, because I didn't know if the previous owners had him in a cage with another animal or something, but then they went away. Recently the scabs on his nose are coming back, on both sides of his nose, and they are pretty big, ones almost the size of a dime. Is he scratching himself to the point where his hair is coming off? Or is he losing his hair?! I've looked over him, and those are the only spots where he is losing his hair.

this new scabbing/hair loss be why he dosen't want to be picked up anymore? I'm trying to do all I can, soon we're going to have to go to the vet or something, any advice will help. Thanks.

Why does hair grow 'down there?'?

Why does hair thicker than the legs yet thinner than on the head grow down there? Whats the purpose of hair down there anyway?
