A member asked:

Is it okay to have hand joint pain while drinking?

4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

No: Finger pain while drinking? Unlikely to be related unless you are very cold sensitive; and that might be an issue with circulation... Hopefully, you are not smoking because that could be the cause of poor circulation.

Dr Ali and another doctor agreed

Drinking wrist: This is not typical. Gout can be related to drinking (alcohol intake)but this more commonly effects the lower extremity joints and not necessarily the wrist.
