A member asked:
I think i may have a cold. stuffy nose and a sore throat. i plan on drinking a bunch of beer tonight, would that be bad for the sore throat?

Not a good idea: Even at your age sleep apnea can occur and with already being stuffy alcohol is not a good idea. Generally we consider anything more than 2-3 beers/day associated with abuse. That is we consider it toxic. Intermittent binge drinking is considered even more toxic.
