As an old saying goes, if your ears are burning, it's because someone is talking about you.
But Mother Nature Network says that's not necessarily the case.
Burning ears could signal a medical issue, based on the environment or something going on internally.
Although it's always best to see your doctor, here are a few common reasons why ears often burn:
1. Ear infections
2. Injury: Everything from cuts and scratches to bug bites and even ear piercings.
3. Sunburn
4. Skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis or even allergies.
5. Temperature changes
6. Hormonal changes
