Interesting! Very Interesting! I have experienced the one red "hot" ear as long as I can remember. I am 38 yrs old. My 17 yr old daughter also has this happen and most recently my friends little guy who is almost 7 has this one red hot ear thtoday g... The interesting thing about all of us... we've bben diagnosed with ADHD. I have also been researching other possible disorders, i.e. sleep disorders and ODD in my daughter. Working with a therapists to look closer at a few things but was just on line and decided to start my research. The red hot ear definelety shows up at times of stress, tension, anger is in the midst.
Hi! I am 32 years old - in good health. I have this red ear problem - in fact have done for a few years now - Yes! it's embarrasing - My blood pressure is excellent, I don't drink and I just don't know! I was very relieved to read that it's not just me with this problem. I have not been able to ascertain what triggers it - it can happen anytime. I am mostly a vegan vegetarian and am very careful about toxins & chemicals. I wonder if it is a hormonal problem??? Who has perfect hormones this day & age? Have you had any luck finding anything more out?
Hi Louise ! I have had this problem for almost ayear now. Mostly my left ear turn red and hot but sometimes my left ear and cheeks also turn red and hot. The strange thing is that I always get this in the afternoon at 3 pm or in the evenig at 8 pm. have you experienced this facial flush also ? I have been tested for carcinoid and mastocytosis but they haven´t found anything abnormal yet. My problem triggers by stress and temperature changes.
I think I have found the answer - eating lots of rolled oats seem to stop it - I think there is something in rolled oates for the nervous system??? let me know how you go - it only took 2 weeks for mine to stop
hi ,i am 45 years old ,i have high blood pressure but i take medecine and i keep it under control.however my ears turn red in the evening while my blood pressure is normal,specially my right ear for about an hour.then it goes back normal.i doono why but it is very embarassing.
Exactlythe same thing here. only in the afternnon or evening. Blood pressure fine. Aspirin proivdes some relief but I am not sure if it or time causes the redness and heat to be reduced. I am having back surgery In late December for pinched nerves and will be curious if the redness goes away or changes after that. I have seen some comments suggesting a link. Will keep all of you informed.
Your right! Blood pressure is one of the side effects. Reduceding your salt intake to 1,500mg would be nice but who can. Blood pressure and food intake of processed foods will tigger red ear. Read your labels their full with harmful chemicals. Kids eat what you eat so their effected too. Some children tolerate more then others because of their D,N.A make up. But be reasure that thousnds of people are having this its just they dont talk about it. Family Doctors will tell you they dont know what causes it. Just asked yours and he will say like maybe cold weather. This is something they dont deal with everyday. I know what you can try and it will work. Please e-mail for details, Have a Great Day.
