Wow, I never knoew som many people had this, I have been dealing with this as long as I can remember (though never as a child ony when I hit my teens) Both ears get bright red almost purple, and they have a burning sensation that hurts. Code Red I am exactly like what you describe, male, sensitive, shy and I am into art. I know what you mean about avoiding certain situations, I worry at times if in life I will be able to overcome this as I worry about what you have said with your career happening to me. It usually happens when it's hot, getting in my car mid day will do this to me, also happens when I get embarassed or am stressed out. Unfortunetly also happens when I talk to women, at which point due to the burning sensation I don't make eye contact and am prone to running my hand through my hair just above my ears. Laura I sympathize with you on this big time though if it does happen you could always have the photographer use photo shop to remove it (I have done this before).
I get this on both ears pretty much everyday. Gets worse in the hotter weather. I am getting married soon and I dont want it to happen at my wedding. Any solutions to this embarassing problem???
