Q: Hot Ears!
asked by: HAG806 on April 5th, 2005

Pretty much everyday I have a dull headache in the back portion of my head, and occassionally it's accompanied by a warm sensation in my ears. The headache isn't extremely painful, just bothersome and steady. Sometimes it's tingly. Does anyone else have a headache w/ hot ears, or am I alone on this one!? :) could it be tension, maybe?

Hot Ears
Welcome to the club. I have the same symptoms. Steadily progressed from occasionally to pretty much constant. No headache but pressure and fatigue. Meds help to reduce the "hot ears" but not entirely. Fatigue and weekness a real problem.Have seen a number of docs including neurologist that diagnosed the problem as migrain headache caused by sinus problems. Still looking for an answer.

Hot Ears
My 10 year old son has been complaining about his ears getting hot and turning very red. This has been going on for about a year. We put ice on them and it seems to help. He isn't on any medication and feels find otherwise. No one seems to have any answers as to the causes. I'm also still searching.

Constant tension behind left ear
I have had the same symptoms now for months. At first it was off and on, but now for the last 3 weeks or a month it has been every day. Behind my left ear is a constant tension that goes from about a half inch behind my ear toward the middle of the back of my head. I can also feel a slight heat inside my inner ear. I can also agree with DQ42 about the fatigue and weekness. All day long I feel like I could close my eyes and go to sleep. I was a very active person before this got to where it is now. I have read on some blogs that is is due to a pinched nerve in the neck, and some say it is tmj. If anyone else has had any success with curing this please post to this blog. Thanks
