i have a weird allergic reaction to alcohol, everytime i drink (and it does not matter which kind). it does not happen right away but when i wake up in the morning, my hands are really red, a little bit rough to the touch and super itchy. i dont know exactly how to explain this but i get some sort of really tiny pimples all over my hands (mainly palm and fingers). the allergy is only on the hands and not any where else on my body. im looking for an answer as to why it happens and should i be concerned more ??
Hi, Alcohol causes vasodilation of small blood vessels and capillaries and sometimes bursts these capillaries under skin leaving behind broken capillaries and red spots. Also, alcohol causes diuresis by suppressing desmopressin release from kidney leading to extra work to the kidney and by this water comes out in bladder leading to depletion of water in body leaves skin Chat Doctor. This all is direct effect of alcohol in body when consumed in excess, you can consider it as an allergy. The best way to cure allergy is avoidance of contact with allergen rather than taking antiallergic
