Hi Doctor, When I drink beer or alcohol I become red . My facial area and upper chest of body become red compare to other body parts. Looks like allergy. After few moments it will vanish automatically. What is this and is it harmful for me?

Didnt drink beer for one day and now my chest is hurting. What should I do? Id like to stop drinking.
I had a couple of beers for the first time in 5-6 months. (Normally I drink liquor) The first beer went down fine but 2-3 sips into the second beer I developed chest pain and a ton of heavy thick phlegm. Could this have been an allergic reaction?
