A member asked:
I get a sharp tingling pain down one side of my neck after consuming alcohol. are there any other causes for this apart from hodgkins disease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not Hodgkins: Well known that alcohol and smoking are highly associated with oral and throat cancer. The alcohol in many cases acts as a severe irritant of oral/pharyngeal mucosa. The throat enters the cervical esophagus when both lateral sides of the oropharynx, the piriform sinuses fuse to form midline esohphagus. Alcohol running down the lateral pharynx across an area of inflammed mucosa can cause pain
