After my rose hair molted, it's leg [tibia] is missing hair. This picture was taken right after the molt; however, I think it may be getting worse? I adopted it from someone who was afraid of tarantulas, so maybe it's leg was harmed? He or she's been really grumpy ever since this molt happened. Will this fix itself when it molts again?

Hard to see in the pic, but yes, it will fix it self in it's next few moults. Worst case scenario,If there is a problem with the leg, the Tarantula may remove its own leg. It will re-generate after a few moults
