English term or phrase: warm, or even hot
Estoy traduciendo un folleto. Y quisiera saber como hacen la diferencia entre ¨warm y hot¨ en este contexto:

¨Flushing: feeling itchy, and warm, or even hot¨

Pensé en algo así como: sensación de picazón y de calor o incluso acaloramiento.

¿Uds lo traducirían así o se usa algún término específico que capaz desconozco?

Gracias :)
Carolmar
calor o incluso ardor
Explanation:
Hot se refiere aquí, creo, a la sensación de quemazón; no sólo a una sensación de calor (warm) sino de ardor (hot), más intensa y molesta.

disagree  Mauro Antonio Rivera Alfaro: Ardor is understood as a "Burning" sensation, which is different from the "hot" sensation derived from swelling. El alcohol arde cuando se aplica en un corte. I would simply go for "Caliente" o "Muy caliente"

  -> Hola Mauro, no puedo estar más en desacuerdo con tu estrechamiento semántico del concepto de ardor en castellano ni con que "muy caliente" (o "mucho calor") funcionasen en castellano en este contexto en particular. Te contesto en Discussion por espacio...
