What Causes Pain On Right Side Of Chest Area Post Alcohol Consumption?
After a night of drinking liquor , I have had stabbing pain in my chest between the middle and right side. Also im having problems swallowing. The pain is sharp but dulls out every few minutes. Nothing else hurts and my breathing doesn t seem to effect it. This always tends to happen after alcohol. What could it be and should I be concerned? I ve only drank 3 times separately this whole month.

hi
you said you drink 3 times but are you a heavy drinker
the pain can be due to gastritis/ulcer caused by drinking
alcoholic pancreatitis is also the cause of similar pain
advised to see a doctor along with upper abdomen usg
take care
