Came home around 6pm tonight and noticed moms face was red (like a sunburn) and very warm.
I asked her to sit down and if she was in any pain. She said she was okay.
I placed a cold wash cloth on her face and she said that it felt good.
Her temperature was 97.1 and her BP was 147/71.
After about 30 minutes only her cheers were pinkish and her face wasn’t hot anymore.
Does anyone know why this happens?
Just waking up from a nap where one was too warm.
After showering, one can flush red.
Is this the first time it's happened? If not, is at certain times, following activity, or something else? I'm thinking that perhaps something is preceding this but you'll have to try to isolate her activities to determine that.
I also wondered about food allergies.
Another issue is what meds she's taking, any new meds, and/or whether there might be interactions if a new med was introduced to her regimen.
doctors said that the fairer your skin, the less vitamin E it takes to get this effect.
I am going to let others answer, but I wanted to acknowledge your question one hour ago. There will be answers to come, even though it is getting late on the West Coast of the USA.
My father had that happen, it was called a vasomotor instability, and was quite normal for him his entire life.
