BACK PAIN WHEN DRINKING ALCOHOL

PEOPLE............

Alochol has worsened my bak pain too.....as some one has pointed out..its duw to kidney damage i guess

I stopped drinking for 4 days and i am much much healthier


SAY NO TO ALCOHOL

I am going to experiment for longer if my back pain completely gets relieved

When I saw these many posts on this thread, so many people complaining about alochol, i am totally convinced.

RED WINE+FRUIT JUICE.....Once a week and That is IT!!!!!!!!!!!


love you all.

Sometimes my shoulders ache while I'm drinking alcohol also. Not sure what this is from but it only seems to happen when I drink mixed drinks that have a lot of sugar in them. I usually drink Jaeger and energy drinks or beer and don't have any problems with it... Any ideas?

I have experienced the same problem...I thought it was just me until reading this bulliten. I am 22 and have had back pain due to bike accidents and the like in the past, though I have found that my pain seems to come back after a big night on the bottle...

I have a tendancy to binge drink and go on a bender probably once every weekend then more frequently on holidays and long weekends etc. The pain is unusually in that it doesn't always feel like muscle pain and it sometimes comes and goes...I'm concerned about my liver and kidneys but I know heaps of people my age who drink more often as well as do various kinds of drugs so it seems unusual that they never complain..

The comment about vitamins and health was interesting though as although I'm quite lean, I'm probably not the fittest or healthiest guy around.

Ah well..I just hope my organs don't decide to shut down any time soon because I'm not sure I can stop partying or even drinking..

I am 25 years old and I have a burning, pain sensation in my lower back every time I drink and for about a day afterwards. I also have scholiosis. I wonder if they're connected?

I had the exact same problem. I had a sore lower back and drinking even the least bit of alcohol would cause severe pain shortly after and would last for about an hour. I went to several doctors who prescribed big advil but nothing helped, so I stopped drinking and dealt with the dull pain that was always there. Then I got a cough, lost 30 pounds and was treated for hodgkins disease. 6 months of chemotherapy and no more back pain!

I also get upper back aches when drinking. It happens about after the 2nd drink and I start to feel this pain it's mostly on the upper back and shoulders. I have muscle tension and figured that that was the reason but I see that it could be more than just that. I'm only 21 and I wouldnt call myself a regular drinker. I havent noticed that the pain will carry on til the morning because my shoulders always hurt but it's just worse when I'm drinking alcohol.

I get lower back pain after a big night of drinking, and have found out that if you get a sore lower back after a drink it means your kidneys are having a hard time, it is a relocation of the pain.

As a trainer for 5 years w/ my own drinking problem. My thoughts are this....drinkin dehydrates you (and your muscles). When we drink, we generally sit in the same position. Muscles get tight (like the hip flexors that attach to the spine), and pull bones out of alignment. I/we feel like shit the next day because of the bottle of Sky I had the night before...well, not totally bad (because of the tolerance I/we builted up), but unmotivated. We don't stretch, walk, move, and it just begins to compound on itself (from sitting, and drying out everything), and next thing you know....your back hurts. I get terrible leg and hip (butt), pains. I used to be really flexible, and now I can't cross my left leg over my right. the muscles in my ass won't go that way. well if you leg and hips are messed up from sitting and drinking (daily), it's going to transfer to your back.
I still have motivation problems....but, I find I can sleep w/ no or little pain it I do cardio for 20mins, and stretch my legs for 10-15mins after. do twisting stretch for back (on back, leg up in air, then lay it across body). one week....see how it feels.
Or, maybe i could just stop drinking and drink water.....well, i know which one will happen first

I only drink 1 or 2 glasses of wine a month, and I am now currently 29 but have gotton back pain whenever i've had any alcoholic beverages since i was 18. I've also noticed that my back pain is alot more intense and lasts for a longer period when i drank dark spirits or spirits that contain more alcholo in them than beer. Why does this happen to me??
