Why Do My Ears Get So Warm?

MixedBag0fMess

Anyone else’s ears get really warm sometimes? Any one know what this could be a symptom of? The only thing I’ve found for it has been menopause, which, I’m 19, so not there yet.

      I’m also autistic and I think it’s a regulation thing, I have issues regulating my temperature and a lot of my other autistic friends have the same issue

      If your ears are red all the time, then it could be red ear syndrome. My mom has it and hers get really hot

      Me (20F) and my dad (56M) both get very sudden and visible hot flushes in our ears sometimes. For context other things we have in common are: anxiety, autism (probably) and both of our jaws subluxate sometimes. It can be triggered by the “wrong kind” of warmth and sometimes emotion, occasionally there is no discernible trigger. I’m not sure if this will help but maybe you have something in common with us?

        @Chair I have anxiety and autism, so that’s 2 out of 3 Mine don’t seemed to be caused by temperature or emotions though, it’s just random. But the anxiety seems like it is a plausible cause

      I have something called PMDD and it causes bigger hormonal shifts when I am pmsing and during my period (so only like one week off a month without symptoms of it) and I get hot ears every time but usually hot flashes come after that. Hormones in general can cause them, so I wouldn’t get too worried!

        @Sydie_Bear I get full hot flashes around my period, but the ear thing is, like not constant, but it’s not around a particular time

          @MixedBag0fMess then my guess is stress or anxiety honestly! Even if you don’t seem stressed or anxious at the time. Cause I sometimes get like that too but I assumed it was my autism this whole time being overstimulated lol!

      My anti-depressants make me really prone to overheating so could be that if ur on anything. Autism can also make you quite sensitive to temperature so maybe ur just reacting more to temperature increases?

        @mx.mistoffolees it started before my antidepressants, the autism might be a possibility, but I doubt it cause it’s cold rn
