Facial flushing
I blush very easily when I get embarrassed and it is even worse if I have had even one alcoholic drink. This is really starting to affect my social life and interactions with others. Is there anything that can help?
Facial flushing, especially if you drink even a small amount of alcohol, is often a sign of a common but not very well understood skin problem called acne rosacea. Since you tend to blush, only when embarrassed, I am not suggesting this is what you are suffering from but anyone for whom flushing is a problem, should try a site search using relevant keywords for more information on rosacea and those natural remedies which really can help manage the symptoms.
If your blushing is a result of shyness only, then you would benefit from the homeopathic remedy, pulsatilla, which is a handy remedy to keep in your bag to take as and when you think you need it in an emergency. A better solution in the longer term would be to consult with a qualified homeopath who can make a constitutional remedy, based on your personality, your outlook and your medical history.
