Hi,
Welcome to healthcare magic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

Following is my reply :

1) This is not a disease.

2) It is response of your body hormones to alcohol which cause flushing of skin.

3) Unfortunately it is not possible to prevent it.     

Let me know if you have any more queries. I will be happy to answer.

Regards,
Dr. Mahesh Koregol
