Red cheeks: This is likely the capillaries of your face expanding and creating more blood flow on the surface of your skin. Some people become very self-conscious about this. It can sometimes lead to or be a symptom of social anxiety. Please see your doc to rule out anything medical and if it continues to be a concern a clinical psychologist can help you create some coping strategies. Peace & good health.
