A member asked:

Does hot feet and tingling of the feet after drinking alcohol mean alcohol allergy if not what causes it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

NO.: This is likely a unique response to alcohol excess and/or an inability to efficiently metabolize alcohol. Less likely, these symptoms could represent a psychological response to excess alcohol intake.
