Question:
Answers:
As soon as your brain senses a stressful situation, the body's "fight or flight" instincts automatically trigger the blushing response, making it impossible to voluntarily control and always unpredictable. Physiologically, blushing of the face or flushing of the neck, chest and shoulders is a harmless reaction caused by over activity of the sympathetic nervous system, which helps regulate glands and organs without our conscious effort and controls the diameter of blood vessels. In some people, these nerves are unusually sensitive to emotional stress.
This site claims to have a medication to alleviate the problem: http://www.eredicane.com/blushing.html...
However, you should probably realize that most people blush or get flushed from time to time. It is a human reaction.
