Increased blush: Mainly, this is genetically determined. There are two groups of predispositions on this. Vessels that are reactive (associated with migraine and hands and feet that do the same red/blue/white/hot/cold) and cheeks that blush (associated with cauliflower nose./ rosacea). Not great medical prevention. Nitrates and vasodilators can make it worse (inc. alcohol).
