What Causes Body Rashes With Burning Sensations In The Ears?

I was talking to my son in TN today and we were discussing allegies. He has had about 3 episodes of breaking out in a rash but first he has a burning sensation in his ears then gets dizzy and feels like he will pass out. one time it happened while in line at a convenience store another time in a restaurant. He stated that he had not had any thing unusual to eat before his occurence. Any info would be appreciated.

Hi,

Perhaps he had hives. Hives are itchy welts with surrounding flare. There can be associated dizziness and feeling of passing out in a severe reaction. Hives can happen as an allergic reaction to either food or food preservatives, drugs and alcohol. I suggest him to take an oral antihistamine e.g Tab Cetrizine once a day for a few days. Topically he may use a soothing lotion e.g calamine lotion to calm down the rashes.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
