Why Have I Started Getting Intermittent Hot Flashes A Few Hours Ago Along With Tightness In The Right Jaw?
Question: I started getting intermittent hot flashes a few hours ago. Also my right jaw is tight and the outside of my face is very swollen in that area. I’m a 56yr old male
Brief Answer:
Seems to be an allergic reaction, take antihistamine
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
According to your complaints it seems to be an allergic reaction.
It could be due to multiple causes like certain foods, drugs or infection in the body.
I would recommend you to take antihistaminic like tablet Cetirizine 10 mg twice daily for few days.
This should resolve your problem.
If it still persists consult a doctor and get yourself evaluated.

Dr. Asmeet
