What Causes Swelling, Itching And Hot Flashes On Ears?
Both of my ears are hot (very hot), itchy and very swollen. I went to the ER last night and they said I have the flu. I had a horrific headache accompanied with a fever. I originally thought my ears had gotten fever blisters, but they are progressively getting worse. Any idea of why my ears would be doing this?

HI
Well come to HMC
I really appreciate your concern your symptom of ear itching and swelling may be due to some hypersensitivity reaction this could be due to autoimmune response wait for some time this would be fine soon, if swelling and itching dose not comes to normal then antihistamine can be tried, and best option would be Tab Levocetirizine 10 mg three times in day, no need to worry about this, everything would be fine soon, take care.
