Facial flushing and hot flashes are two of the most common causes of red face. Facial flushing is the redness of the skin that usually affects the face. Hot flash has facial flushing as one of its symptoms. Facial flushing is associated with several events that occur in our daily life. Events like exercise, embarrassment, blushing, anger, stress and anxiety can lead to mild facial flushing.

Whenever you are under undue physical or mental stress as you are when involved in a hard workout or when you become angry, anxious or embarrassed, you are liable to go through facial flushing.

Psoriasis is a non-contagious disease that involves the unrestrained production of skin cells that leads to heavy accumulation of skin cells on the surface of the skin. The skin at the affected part of the body becomes red and rough. This condition is commonly seen on the skin that surrounds the elbows, scalp, knees and ears. The extent of damage done by psoriasis varies from person to person. Usually, psoriasis is a chronic condition that recurs frequently.

Males and females are almost equally vulnerable to psoriasis, and those belonging to the Caucasian race are the most affected. Occurrence of this condition in one part of the body will not cause the occurrence of it in another part. Psoriasis can be of different types with each one exhibiting its own characteristics. The various types of psoriasis include plaque psoriasis, guttate psoriasis, inverse psoriasis, pustular psoriasis and erythrodermic psoriasis. Scientists have still not been able to pinpoint at the causes of this condition. However, there are certain factors that are believed to bring about its attack.

A flawed immune system is believed to be a major cause of psoriasis. The growth of skin cell in people with such immune systems occurs at a much faster rate because of the unnecessary triggering of accelerated skin cell growth. It is estimated that, out of the general population, 10 percent are born with a tendency to develop this disease. But, the fact remains that only two to three percent of the general population end up as sufferers of psoriasis. Genetics is considered to be the other major culprit behind psoriasis. But, those who are genetically susceptible to the attack of psoriasis will not develop it until they are acted upon by “triggers”.

Certain environmental factors like cigarette smoking and consumption of alcohol, certain medications like lithium, anti-malarial medications and beta-blockers, cold, winter weather conditions, inadequate supply of sunlight and severe infections like tonsillitis and strep throat can act as triggers for the development of psoriasis. People suffering from asthma and those suffering from inadequate digestion are more prone to this condition. People having to cope with undue stress in their lives may also develop this condition.   Psoriasis symptoms may become more prominent due to scratching and cutting of skin, sunburn or an insect bite. The commonly exhibited symptoms of psoriasis include,

• Inflammation of skin
• Appearance of silvery scales on skin
• Itching
• Irritation
• Headache
• Weakening of memory
• Loss of normal body odor
