<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.Hi, everytime I drink alcohol even after 12 drinks I get really sharp chest pains, which then the next day leads to a fainter pain and also back achepains. Is this normal? I also experience vomiting the next day, even if I have only had a few drinks. Thanks  <response>: Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Alcohol is known to cause gastritis hyperacidity. This will in turn causes burning epigastric pain, nausea and vomiting. So better not to take alcohol in the future. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid large meals. Take pantoprazole antacid twice daily on empty stomach.Dont worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
