This is a really far fetched guess that I thought of when reading txmom2's The King (good riddle btw!). So I'm taking a couple of her lines and running with it!

Wearing red he comes opposite the crown

Everyone feels uncomfortable when he is around

Invasion and occupation, yielding shock and uprise

But the problem is: abrupt leaving would yield equal surprise

Robin hood?

[Guest]

Not the one I'm looking for!

[Guest]

Superman or Spiderman?

[Guest]

Nah

[Guest]

Athlete's foot

[Guest]

swastika or a devil's costume??

Maybe....

[Guest]

blood?

[EDM]

the 'high voltage' or electricity pole......????

[dyalDragon]

Coke?

[Guest]

Sound like good guesses, but not what I'm looking for yet.

Btw, if you think you've got one that fits perfectly, just explain your reasoning and it'll be an official alternate answer!

[Guest]

hmmm then my guess would be

fire fighter or his axe

Wearing red he comes opposite the crown- crown or fire hydrant.

Everyone feels uncomfortable when he is around- because theres a fire

Invasion and occupation, yielding shock and uprise- when he knocks down doors etc to help people

But the problem is: abrupt leaving would yield equal surprise-if he lefton the job

Athlete's foot

Wearing red he comes opposite the crown - opposite the crown of the head is your feet

Everyone feels uncomfortable when he is around - not just the itching and burning of the victim but others won't want you around as it's pretty contagious

Invasion and occupation, yielding shock and uprise - immune system uprise

But the problem is: abrupt leaving would yield equal surprise - athlete's foot doesn't go away very quickly or easily

Hemorrhoids for similar reasons as athlete's foot

[Guest]

A woman's menstrual cycle

Wearing red he comes opposite the crown crown referring to the head... the "opposite" area

Everyone feels uncomfortable when he is around it's not exactly a big conversation piece...

Invasion and occupation, yielding shock and uprise can be sudden, stays for a while

But the problem is: abrupt leaving would yield equal surprise menopause

Fits but for one word: uprise

Btw I've been thinking about your Status Quo riddle! Grrrr...

Fits perfectly, so I accept it! (Or accept both, I guess, ha)

EDIT: dang! Forgot to add it to poll

A woman's menstrual cycle

Wearing red he comes opposite the crown crown referring to the head... the "opposite" area

Everyone feels uncomfortable when he is around it's not exactly a big conversation piece...

Invasion and occupation, yielding shock and uprise can be sudden, stays for a while - I was thinking of when you're young and first start getting it, and it can be immensely painful for some girls

But the problem is: abrupt leaving would yield equal surprise menopause - I was thinking of the shock or happy surprise of missing your period because you're pregnant

Ding ding! I did have slightly different reasoning though
