Minoxidil never burns the skin and no wounds occur bcz of it. It must be something else that you used/did. Its normal to see some dandruff like flakes with the use of minoxidil. Wash hair alternate day. There are many causes of hair loss such as hormonal, stress, salon procedure nutritional deficiencies. Need to be treated accordingly. And minoxidil is a right drug for it.
