O
nce upon a time, when lifewas farmore
dangerous, blushingwas a clear indicator of keen
survival instincts – theby-product of a defence
reaction vital to staying alive.When facedwith a
physically threatening ‘fight or flight’ situation, the
humanbody experiences a sudden surgeof adrenaline, fuelledby
the releaseof anextra sourceof energy. This energy is generated
by an increase inbloodcirculation, which almost doubles as the
heart begins tobeat faster, bloodpressure rises significantly and
the skin andmuscles fill withblood. At this point, thebody is at
its peak condition tohandle the threat inwhateverway it sees fit.
Yet today, in a society free from themany dangers that
plagued our ancestors, blushing is less likely to be a blessing.
Blushing and shynessmay act as an obstacle to forming the
relationships required to progress and find fulfilment inwork
and at home. Now that we face far fewer physical threats,
these problems are increasingly caused by psychological
concerns. Inmany cases, we don’t even recognise the true
causes, which often date from a childhood incident.
However, there is now good news for sufferers, as specialists
have refined a treatment that will quickly rid them of their
affliction. The complex reaction described can be particularly
attributed to the actions of the sympathetic nervous system,
and so it follows that controlling this system is essential in
any attempt to resolve a patient’s blushing problem. This
can be achievedwith an endoscopic sympathetic block (ESB).
This gentle, exact anddrug-free treatment canbeperformed
as day surgery under light anaesthesia, and is shown tohave a
significant beneficial effect onblushing, aswell as awide variety
of other conditions.
These include problems with excessive sweating on the
face and hands, which can be alleviated by compressing,
even just minimally, the sympathetic chainwith tiny clips.
And, if the patient should later feel discomfort in any way,
these clips can be removed and the situation can be reversed.
The procedure can also help address social phobia, panic
attacks and common fears such as flying, heights or the
dark. It can reduce stuttering and trembling, and even assist
with alcoholism or drug withdrawal, since these are often
linked to social anxiety.
