What’s wrong with heartburn after drinking?

Heartache after drinking may be caused by alcohol intoxication, sympathetic excitation or coronary atherosclerosis.
1. Alcohol poisoning: If the patient is poisoned by alcohol due to excessive drinking, toxic myocarditis may be induced, which will eventually cause heart pain, accompanied by chest tightness and dyspnea and other symptoms.
2. Sympathetic excitation: some patients may experience sympathetic nervous system excitation after drinking alcohol, which may affect the normal activity of myocardial electrocardiogram when the heart load increases, thus causing heart pain after drinking alcohol.
3. Coronary artery atherosclerosis: it is mostly caused by dyslipidemia and high blood pressure, etc. If the cardiac load increases due to alcohol consumption, which triggers myocardial hypoxia, the aggravation of the condition may lead to heart pain.
If the sudden appearance of heart pain after drinking, it is recommended that the patient promptly consult a doctor for examination, after clarifying the cause of the disease, under the guidance of the doctor for treatment.
