Pain in legs after alcohol consumption
This has been happening since last couple of months. I drink occasionally and under control. But in last couple of months, whenever I had alcohol, i have felt pain in both my legs. The pain starts 2-3 hours after drinking usually when I go to bed and lasts all night long and sometimes carries on to the next day too. Is this common? Or should I see a doctor?

Hello,
This can be due to some deficiency in your body. I would recommend more tests. I would require more detailed history of your symptoms to come to a conclusion.

There seems to be no link with consumption of alcohol and having pain in the legs 3-4 hours after consumption of alcohol.
Please consult a General Physician in your area for proper physical examination. Some cause for pain in legs may be found.
