Turning Red and Wet

Classical blushing generally refers to the appearance of redness on the face – a physiological response often – but not necessarily – to an emotional stimulus such as embarrassment, shame or modesty. With or without emotional stimulus, the heavy blusher may suffer from idiopathic craniofacial erythema – a medical condition related to social phobia. Pathological blushing is referred to as erythrophobia (“fear of redness’).

Redness may be accompanied by excess perspiration in palms, arms, armpits, face or groin area. Such sweating, above and beyond what is considered normal for regulating body temperature, is the condition known as Hyperhidrosis.

Options to Cure Blushing and Sweating

Typically, antiperspirants with the active ingredient aluminum chloride are insufficient to cure Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating). Injections are available for excessive underarm sweating which actually disable sweat glands, but relief is not permanent, lasting up to a few months.

Anti-cholinergic drugs are known to reduce Hyperhidrosis, but unpleasant side-effects are typical.

Surgical procedures, including endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) are drastic, invasive measures associated with a range of side effects, questionable success levels, and risk of recurrence. ETS has been used to treat both Hyperhidrosis and facial blushing.

How to Cure Blushing and Sweating – no medication, no surgery

Blushing, the fear of blushing, and severe sweating can be cured through psycho-physiological therapy. As by-products of social phobia, blushing and severe sweating can be resolved by emotional restructuring which occurs concurrent with understanding the workings of automatic body responses and learning to control them.
