Strange pain after alcohol?

I have a problem that only occurs after drinking alcohol. The next morning I always have severe pain in my backside. It feels something like hemorrhoids and is very painful. I also get a light case of diarrhea but I feel this is more normal after a big night out. If I go out a couple of nights in a row it get worse and makes it hard to sit down. From what I can tell the area get very red but there's no bleeding. It can last up to three or four days before it goes back to normal and only ever happens after I've been drinking. I wonder if this is some sort of allergic reaction to alcohol or something else? If there are any ideas or simlilar situation your input would be appreciated

Hi,

There have been some clinical studies to find out a link between the alcohol consumption and back ache but there’s been no consistent causal relationship. Actually, alcohol is supposed to be a muscle relaxant but in some people it may cause muscle spasm.

Hence, in your case, alcohol may be the culprit. May be you can avoid taking too much of it one go as usually it’s the abuse of alcohol which results in muscle spasm.

I hope that helps. Kindly do keep me posted.
