My son is 8 and gets the hot, red ear thing. We noticed it starting last October. He was really sick for six weeks with a fever that wouldn't go away. He was at Childrens's Hospital in Boston and the Infectious Disease unit at the hospital and no one could figure it out. He's fine now but the only leftover is the hot ears. I didn't know if this sickness unleashed something that is still floating around in him. He also gets it at night which would be when his resistence is at its lowest. I have to give him a cold cloth to cool it down. He is very healthy with no other problems and doesn't drink much tonic and drinks lots of water. Glad to know there are others out there.
