When i drink alcohol i instantly get severe headache and really bad pain in my stomach, why is this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Drug Effect: Alcohol can effect blood vessels and give you a headache. It can also be quite irritating to your stomach. You may not tolerate it. Many people wish they had your problem when they were younger. Most people who drink have trouble with moderation and it adversely affects their quality of life, despite the popular image to the contrary.
