Answer 1

Blushing or flushing can be very normal, but it is also embarrassing. Occasionally there are medical reasons for this as well. The sources below list some possible causes. You might try to figure out if there is anything that triggers the flushing, and then avoid the triggers. Unless it is something obvious, such as menopause or social anxiety or a reaction to a certain food, you might want to check with your doctor about it. Good luck, and I hope it is nothing serious.

Answer 2

The immediate possibility that comes to mind is that you may have primary hypertension....causes by a problem with your adrenal gland located near your kidney. I may be a bit off as it has been years since my anatomy course.

Please note that primary hypertension accounts for only 5% of people with high blood pressure so it is only a remote chance your have this. The other 95% have what is is know as essential hypertension.
