This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

I'm really worried because my mom, who was just diagnosed with kidney stones last Saturday, hasnt had a bowel movement since then and now it's Tuesday night.
