A member asked:
Why do i get extreme pain in my stomach even after 1 alcoholic drink i have drank once in a year, the pain is unbearable. could it be liver problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Gastritis: Your stomach is usually on the left side of your abdomen, and your liver is on the right. If you have unbearable pain when drinking alcohol, you could have an inflamed stomach (gastritis) causing the pain. If you continue drinking this will get worse, and possibly bleed. If the pain does not subside within a day of not drinking, please see your physician.
