However, for some people excessive or abnormal blushing or sweating is a serious problem for them, occurring on a daily basis and it can have a serious impact on the quality of their lives. If you are reading this page I assume that either or both problems apply to you. You will find, I am sure, that your blushing or sweating comes on in situations which should otherwise be of minimal actual embarrassment or stress to you - such as meeting a friend by chance while out shopping or being in a meeting at work and simply being asked for your opinion on something. Indeed the fear of blushing, known as erythrophobia, or the problem of excessive sweating, known as hyperhidrosis, can make you feel like you have to limit or try to control your lifestyle in order to avoid as much as possible any situation where either might occur. Blushing isn't always confined to the face or cheeks, sometimes the redness may extend all down the neck and upper chest and can take on a blotchy appearance which makes women especially feel conscious of it as they might feel unable to wear certain styles of clothes. Excessive sweating can occur most anywhere on the body but is mostly on the face, armpits, chest, palms of the hands or soles of the feet - between 1 and 3% of the population actually suffers from hyperhidrosis as opposed to having a general problem with sweating. Abnormal blushing and sweating aren't for the majority of sufferers actually physical problems - they are in fact symptoms of anxiety , most commonly social anxiety or social phobia. Anxiety of any kind is caused by subconscious, bottled up emotions and it is this which is the cause of all of your problems. There are some medical ways of controlling the symptoms, such as taking tablets like "Eredicane" for blushing or beta-blockers for sweating; or having botox injections; or having surgery. The surgical operation is known as 'sympathectomy' and involves destroying the sympathetic nerves serving the areas involved with blushing or sweating. This operation is not often available on the NHS and privately it will cost you about £4,000. However, I must stress that, if you choose to try Eredicane or botox or surgery, this is only dealing with your particular symptom, it is not dealing with the root cause. So, even IF you do manage to control your symptom in one of these ways, the underlying bottled up emotions causing it will still be present and they will then produce another symptom for you, perhaps panic attacks or maybe a phobia or something else: this is known as 'symptom substitution'. The only way to properly resolve your problems and to make sure you do not develop a different symptom or problem in the future is to resolve the underlying cause of your blushing, sweating and anxiety.
