What Causes Muscle Spasms In Sholders And Mid Back After Consuming Alcohol?
Hi I seem to have muscle spasms in my sholders and mid back area when I consume alcohol... This pain is constant and uncomfortable. I am not a heavy drinker in fact I may have a margarita type drink once or twice a week. But within 2 to 3 sips I start feeling the extreme discomfort. I have been diagnosed with degenerate joint disease ( not sure if this is the reason for the discomfort) so I usually take a 10 mg loratab as soon as the pain start, and the pain immediately stops and I am back to normal. This has been happening for years, can you give me any advise about my issue? Btw no stomach issues...only mid back and sholders...sometimes I get my son to walk on my back, or I ask my husband to press down on it hard so that it will pop..to release the tension and discomfort.
HI Thank for asking to HCM If you really feel that you get this problem after the alcohol consumption then it is obvious that you have to stop drinking it, because alcohol disturb the certain physiological functions which deals with the nervous system, that might be the cause in your case, hope this information helps you bye.
