  1. ok, details,

    im 24

    i started drinking at 21 and never beer, just liquor.

    i get drunk usually 2 times a week, sometimes more

    last few months after drinking say 4 whiskey cokes with 2.5 shots in each, the next morning(and it gets WORSE through out the day) my knees start to hurt so dam much that i cant sit, i cant relax, i try to walk it off but nothing helps. i take alieve, NOTHING helps.

    this usually happens if i go a good 10 days w/o drinking and then get drunk. well now im in COMPLETE pain and wonder if there is something i can do to get this crap to stop. my wifes dad has had to have his knees drained from goute(sp?) i think its called from liquid buildup in his kness from being drunk like EVERY day of his life though.

    help is much needed from my fellow OT drinkers, ty
     
  2. did you go to the doctor or are you looking for a different alcohol to drink?

    go to the doctor.
  3. id have to say go to the doctor... dont really see how drinking could cause knee pain...

    and if you dont want to go to the doctor i say drink more when you drink and drink more often
  4. Like everyone else says..go to a M.D.Don't get freaked or anytning but there is a link between achohol consumption and polyarthalgia aka joint pain.Take it easy on the likka my friend.
  5. stop sucking penix, that might help.
  6. doctor
  7. well good news is the alieve worked rather quickly. but yeah its -ev for me to drink it seems. oh and no i wasnt tryig to find a different drink, didnt mean to make it seem that way, it happens if i use vodka etc as well. maybe i just move over from bieng a drinker to a pot head, dunno,

  8. F doctors....id say you need to pbv not go 10+ days without drinking, possibly start drink earlier in the day...or maybe 5-6x/week

    ease into it
  9. Thats odd. I'm no doctor, but i remember reading if you work out after you drink alcohol can get into your muscles and cause problems. So are you jogging and shit while drunk or something? Otherwise i dont know how alcohol would do this.
  10. go see a Doctor,,,, 4 sure
  11. Allopurinol.
  12. Eat bananas.
  13. sounds more like joint pain than muscle pain/cramping, maybe a banana liquor would be a happy medium
  14. Doctor or hydrocodone
  15.
