There could be various reasons why your forehead feels hot while the temperature of your body is normal. Here are some possible explanations:
1. Localized blood flow: It is possible that the blood vessels in your forehead are dilated, which can cause increased blood flow and heat in that area. This can happen due to various reasons, such as stress, anxiety, or even lying down in a certain position.
2. Hormonal changes: Hormonal fluctuations can also cause changes in body temperature, particularly during the menstrual cycle. The forehead is a common area for hot flashes to occur.
3. Medication side effects: Certain medications (Moxifast-CV 625 and Quik-BM) can cause hot flashes as a side effect. If you are taking any medication, it is worth checking with your healthcare provider to see if this could be the cause.
4. Environment: External factors such as ambient temperature, humidity, and exposure to heat sources such as heaters or blankets can cause localized temperature changes in the body.
It is worth noting that the body's temperature tends to fluctuate throughout the day and night, and it is normal to experience minor variations. However, if you are experiencing persistent or severe forehead heat, it may be worth consulting privately with me to rule out any underlying medical conditions.
