Things You'll Need:
- An antihistamine
-
Step 1
Avoid foods and drinks that can trigger blushing. Spicy foods, hot foods and alcoholic beverages can all cause you to blush. If you have eaten something that causes you to blush, start sucking on some ice cubes or ice chips to cool your body temperature down and prevent further dilation of your blood vessels.
-
Step 2
Refrain from getting stressed out. Getting continually angry or excited can prompt the occurrence of blushing. Stay calm and avoid letting your emotions get out of control.
-
Step 3
Think about taking an antihistamine, such as Benadryl. Since antihistamines are sometimes used to deal with skin problems, such as skin rashes, they may be helpful in addressing the issue of blushing, especially if it might be triggered by an allergy.
-
Step 4
Check with your doctor to find out if rosacea is the cause of your blushing. Rosacea is a skin condition that causes redness of the skin and that is accompanied by tiny bumps that contain pus. This is a chronic skin disease that requires treatment. Your doctor may prescribe antibiotics and/or medicated ointments to help relieve skin redness and other symptoms of rosacea.

Step 5
See a therapist. If your blushing is caused by emotional reasons, getting therapy may aid you in getting to the root of your problem. Ask your doctor to refer you to a good psychiatrist or therapist, so that you can change the emotional patterns that trigger blushing.
