In the last couple of years I have noticed my face has a tendancy to get red of small things. Since I noticed this it has gotten worse - I think about it too much! At my old job I had finally gotten it under control, I'm not sure how but it just stopped happening. Now, I have a new job. Someone pointed out my face gets red really easy, especially when I get upset, etc. Hey, my face is blushing right now just by thinking about it! And no one is in the room with me?
Anyone have any suggestions to help me? It is very embarassing and seems to just be getting worse. ARGG!

You have a condition called Rosacea. You need to see a doctor, not necessarily a dermatologist. The doctor will probably prescribe metrogel and doxycycline. You need to get it under control because it can progress to rhinophyma (a bulbous W. C. Field's nose).
You need to be very careful in how you take care of your skin. AM - rinse with lukewarm water, no scrubbing. Use a nonoily SPF 30 or greater everyday (Neutrogena makes a Drytouch SPF30). At night, use Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser (Wal-Mart has the Equate brand of it) or other gentle cleanser. Never use soap on your face. Use a light moisturizer if needed (such as Lubriderm which is water-based). Stay away from overly hot or cold drinks, spicy foods, alcohol, and caffeine. Keep water at your desk and sip often.

not unavoidably. there are assorted scientific motives a individual could have a pink face. Blushing is a momentary condition the place an experience reasons a boost of blood pressue, dialating the vessels interior the face, giving the pink hue. as quickly because of the fact the strain decreases returned, the colour is long previous. A greater long term redness may be the end results of suburn, rash, allergic reaction, psoriasis, pimples, or rosacia, to call some.

First, make sure you do not have hypertension (high blood pressure).
If it is emotional stress, then you could work on that with therapy. If therapy doesn't work, a low dose Prozac might.
Some doctors recommend a surgical cure, if nothing else works.
Here is a site about the surgery: Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy ( ETS )

I suggest you see a dermatologist - it might be a condition known as rosacea.
