A member asked:
Can red wine increase bleeding of fissures?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bleeding: Researchers at Georgetown University Medical did a study that showed that the alcohol decreased the clumping together of platelets, cells that are essential to blood clotting. Although not specifically tested for, this gives rise to a possible/ theoretical increase in fissue bleeding. Further study would be needed to know for sure.
