What Causes Chest Pain On Alcohol Consumption?
I'm 26, F, 5'2, 150lb and lately I've been getting chest pains after consuming alcohol. At first, it was just certain type of liquors and it would go away after 15-20 min. But this last time i woke up and had chest pains. What could be causing this? I'm definitely going to stop drinking.
