What is wrong with my black bear hamster?

Question

My black bear hamster has two red bald spots on each side of his body. They are in the middle on the side. He also itches the two spots alot. His butt grew bigger and he has been making a hissing noise lately. Today, he laid on his side making this hissing sound for about ten minutes. What is wrong with my hamster?
