Why am i getting instant headaches when i drink alcohol?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Headaches: Instant headaches are a bit unusual for anything, however you could be very sensitive to the toxins in the alcohol. You could also be getting dehydrated which can cause headaches. Water is probably your best bet and good for you as well. Hope this helps.
