Both children and adults may experience sudden redness on their cheeks. This reddening is not only related to personal physical constitution, but also varies in its manifestation. Inflammation and alternating hot and cold temperatures can easily lead to facial flushing. When the facial capillaries are stimulated, they tend to expand, resulting in facial redness. What causes this reddening? Let's take a look below.
1. The continuous expansion of capillaries in the skin can cause facial redness. Treatment should be tailored to the specific condition of the patient. Another possibility is that it is caused by yin deficiency. It can also be seen in premature menopause or plant nerve dysfunction. One can visit the Traditional Chinese Medicine department of a hospital for examination to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment.
2. Patients experiencing such symptoms are advised to actively strengthen their exercise, and they can regularly take cold showers. They can also alternate between using hot and cold towels to apply to their faces to train their facial reaction ability. They should avoid eating foods that easily cause heatiness and choose lighter, healthier foods. They should eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, avoid spicy foods, and get adequate rest.
3. Some healthy individuals may have naturally rosy cheeks due to good peripheral blood circulation. Some people may blush due to alcohol consumption. An increase in hemoglobin carried by red blood cells can also lead to a reddish complexion. Others may blush due to menopause or systemic diseases such as hypertension, tuberculosis, lupus erythematosus, etc. There is no need to worry about physiological blushing, but pathological blushing should be examined and treated by a doctor.
Notes: Blushing can be managed through various methods, including medication, dietary adjustments, and psychological adjustments. People who blush easily should avoid foods that increase vasodilation, such as caffeinated beverages like coffee, tea, and cola. They should consume more foods rich in vitamins and avoid excessive sun exposure. They should also refrain from smoking and alcohol consumption and maintain a positive and non-angry mindset.
