Answer 1

Alcohol can cause alcoholic liver cirrhosis, It can cause big defects on your stomach wall. The problem is that these stomach problems caused or aggravated by excessive drinking may not disappear once the drinking stops. You could suffer from them to the rest of your life. Beside his affect on stomach wall, it can cause also a Pancreatitis- inflammation of normal pancreas tissue. This could also be your problem because it is causing strong abdominal pains. You will never know what the right cause of your problems until you contact your GP. Good luck and stop drinking for now!

Answer 2

You could have stomach ulcers. If I drink alcohol it hurts in the same place and sometimes even in my chest. Its feels so bad sometimes that I'm worried its a heart attack.But that happens when I eat certian foods too.
