A member asked:

Can i continue to be taking alcohol with a lower back pain nd itching on every area of my abdomen after drinking?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: While many people use etoh to help relieve anxiety and/or pain- it is not a good idea to try to fix something you don't understand. In your case, i would see your doctor to get labs and check your health.
