What Causes Heat Around Eyes And Ears With Dry Flaky Skin Around Them?

I was told by my doctor recently that my thyroid is so-so, but she didn t elaborate in the message. Lately, it feels as if all the heat in my body is trying to escape out my eyes and ears - to the point that the skin around them is drying and flaking. Could this be a sign of hyperthyroidism?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, no this is not the symptoms of thyroid dysfunction but in case of doubt better to get the thyroid function test and this is the right way for diagnosis, hope this information helps take care and have a nice day.
