Hot flashes start when blood vessels near the skin’s surface widen to cool off, making you break out in a sweat.
When they happen while you sleep, they’re called night sweats. They can wake you up and may make it hard to get enough rest. A hot flash is also known in some countries as a hot flush.
Symptoms of hot flashes include
- Redness in your face and neck.
- Having skin that suddenly feels warm.
- Experiencing redness of the skin on the face, neck, ears, chest, or other areas.
- Sweating, especially in the upper body.
- Tingling in your fingers.
- Experiencing a heartbeat that is faster than usual.
- A sudden feeling of heat spreading through your body
- A red flush spreading across your chest, neck, face and head
