Please explain what are some symptoms of alcohol poisoning and exsanguination?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Odd question: Alcohol poisoning is basically a sedative overdose, and usually happens when either a small child finds a leftover drink, or an adult "chugs" enough alcohol to rapidly bring up the blood alcohol concentration. Respirations slow, person loses consciousness, eventually breathing and the heart stop, or the person aspirates. Exsanguination results in hemorrhagic shock, fainting, weakness, up to death.
