Yes it can: Yes, this is binge drinking -- a form of alcohol abuse, which can damage your liver. See your doctor about this. Not only liver damage is possible, though -- it's also neurotoxic, and can increase your risk for heart disease later in life. http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/259560.php findings with binge drinking were similar to damage caused by hypertension and high cholesterol.
