What Causes Hot Flushes Along With Tingling Sensation On Face And Lips?

I often get a sudden feeling of warmness and tingling come over my face and lips along with red blotchiness on both my face and chest. It sought of makes me feel like I ve been crying...as my eyelids feel heavy. The feeling usually lasts about an hour or more. My doctor thought I may have been going through early menopause, but I m not sure, since I am only 39 yrs old. Do you have any ideas? I know somethings not right!

Dear

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query hot flushes along with tingling sensation on face and lips is because of nerve impingement or pressure on facial nerve which can lead to facial paralysis. Visit dentist once and get it examined to rule out nerve compression , neuralgia or other conditions like neuropathy. Also take benadryl for allergic reaction . Go for physical therapy of facial muscles. Avoid opening mouth extreme wide while jawing. If it is not due to dental related cause visit neurologist once and get it examined. Doctor may prescribe MRI of brain as it could be related to stroke. Neurotropic medication such as nerve supplement , methylcobalamine is effective to improve your symptoms.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Hello dear If I am your physician I will send you for hormonal test to check for possible low estrogen level and other parameters that are abnormal. So reach out a nearby diagnostic center where you can do this and reach your physician with the result
