the type of flushing you describe after drinking alcohol is not necessarily unusual. alcohol consumption causes veins to dilate (get larger) which can cause the skin to appear reddened. this venous dilation also is the cause of the warm feeling many people associate with moderate drinking. absent any other symptoms you probably need not worry about this bit of flushing caused by consuming a moderate amount of alcohol. note however if you take any prescription medications you should consult your health care provider or a pharmacist before consuming alcohol in any amount. alcohol can affect medications in many different ways so if you are drinking (even wine or beer) you want to make sure it's safe for you. wishing you well!
