Hi all, I've always gotten a red and hot ear when I'm run down (tired) or just coming down with a cold. I think it's always the left, but I'm not positive.
It also happens sometimes with alcohol, mostly at night. It's not really a problem for me (actually the pre-sickness hot ear is useful for letting me know when I should get some extra rest). :)
As for commonalities - it is interesting - I also am O+. I've noticed a bunch of posts from people with anxiety/stress issues - but keep in mind that it could be that only anxious/stressed folks are taking the time to research this. I just happened to be bored and wanted to see if anyone else has this. It's interesting!
If you have any other symptoms (pain, etc.) or are really worried you should go to the doctor, but (in my unprofessional opinion) the occasional hot ear itself is not dangerous. Just a quirk of the body.

Good luck to all!
