What Causes Hotness In My Face After Getting An Injection?

I had a Hida Scan done today, when they were injecting me with the solutions, I started to feel very warm and flushed almost like when dye is injected, now 2 hours after the Hida Scan, my face is still flushed and feels very hot, is this a normal reaction?

you have developed an allergic reaction to the dye used in hida scan. not to worry because it gets eliminated within 3-4 hrs from the body and your flushing will come down,hotness is due to flushing. if you develop respiratory distress i suggest you to attend ER immediatly.
