I also forgot to mention I tried the tongue method that was mentioned above and it seemed to help. I truly believe it is an allergie of some type....but cannot figure it out. I've been watching anything that has color#5 in it...allot of foods..and granola have this in it.
Yes! It is absolutely an 'allergic' reaction for us. For me, it is a wheat allergy. I only have this happen when I've had an abundance of wheat, and it has worsened over the years, spreading to the right side of my neck and my scalp. My son gets a hot red ear (and another rashe on his knees/incredibly irritable) when he has dairy. The first sign is always the burning ear though!
I had an appointment with my doctor today after several months of having one ear, the other ear, or both get very red and hot for no apparent reason every day. He thinks it may be raynauds phenomenon but took blood to make sure it's not raynauds disease which is an autoimmune disease. Apparently there is a difference between raynauds phenomenon and raynauds disease.
