What Causes Chills And Heavy Sweating After Alcohol Consumption?
Hi, I am a paraplegic, but am very healthy. Lately I have been getting the chills and sweats almost immediately after having just one drink. I ve been dealing with a UTI and I thought that s why but took antibiotics to get rid of it, and to celebrate my friends engagement... After the first drink I had the chills came back. Can someone please help tell me what s wrong?

alcohol causes vasodialatation so it can not cause such symptoms. it is uti responsible for that. it will cause fever with chill and remission with sweating. go for culture and sensitivity and take recommended antibiotic which is most effective. once the infection is controlled the other problems will be over
