When people get physical symptoms of anxiety, i.e chest pains, do you get covered in a red rash on your chest?

    Hey Hannah,

    When you're anxious your heart rate, breathing and body temp all increase, all of which can cause your skin to flush red or make an appearance of a rash or reddening on the skin. As long as it's not spotty or looks like hives or bruising under the skin I would say anxiety can cause this and it's not serious.

    Hope this helps x
