Face And Ears Have Gotten Red, Burning, Nausea. Thyroids Slightly Increased . Signs Of Infection ?
The last couple weeks my face and ears have gotten red and felt like they were burning. Also some nausea . Comes on fast and then seems to go away in a half hour or so. I haven t used anything different on my face but I have been having stress dealing with my moms chronic illness . Could this be a sign of infection? My thyroid dosage has recently been increased. This is the only thing that s changed.

Hello
Well come to health care magic
Dear patient, feeling of redness and burning on face and ears could be due to stress and anxiety but more importantly it could be due to throid harmone overdosage, so you consult your doctor who may get your TFT (thyroid function test) repeated again and will adjust the dose of your thyroid harmone .Also get your blood pressure checked
Thanks
