What Causes Flushing In Face And Lips?

Hello. I wonder if you could tell me about a symptom I've been having with increasing frequency over the last month or so, now almost constant over the last 2 or 3 days. I'm a 45 yr old male and my lips often get flushed, sometimes bright red, and today my face feels flush as well. More symptoms/suspicions if you need them. Thanks.

Hello.

Thank you for asking at HCM.

I went through your history and would like to make suggestions for you as follows:

1. I would suggest you to take an antihistamine like hydroxyzine for 2-3 days. It will help.

2. I would also suggest you to avoid hot/spicy foods for a week if it is possible.

Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.

Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.

Wish you the best of the health.

Thank you & Regards.
