Senior Member pushing 40 Posted July 17, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted July 17, 2007 Really? That's kind of scary. Have you had your blood pressure checked recently? What were you drinking? I know when I drink red whine, I get flushed in the face for hours on end but it is usually gone the next day. Maybe an allergic reaction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill - Seemiller Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Petesman, Depending on the level of redness... I have found that this can be normal, especially when your body gets heated. Pinkness/redness showed up more after I came back from the gym moreso than when I was lounging around. It could also be due to blood pressure, etc. Not sure exactly how drunkenness can effect it...though a lot of alcohol in the blood generally isn't good period.

Guest Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Just a heads up. I assume you are talking about hair and face redness? Many people have signs of rosacea and they don't know it and alcohol agravates it, especially red wine. I found out that I have a mild case of it but it's manageable and red wine really makes it worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
