hello i assume what you are asking is why does your back hurt after drinking alchohol?
You have drank over excessisivley and the hurt you feel in your side at the back is an overworked kidney trying to break down the toxins.
try drink in moderation and if it continues get it checked out. Could have develpoed a kidney stone.
hope this helps you.

i go to the doctors for anything!!!!!!
medication can cause the heart racing.
i have high blood pressure and high cholesterol. they said that having high blood is a disease, and a silent killer.
my heart used to race a lot, one day it felt like someone was sitting on my chest.
you should go to the doctors and get it checked out, because symptoms your having is anyone's guest.

i think the back pain is a separate issue.
your body is like a computer and sometimes it tells you that something is wrong.
and doctors dont know the answers to everything. when my heart was racing. my doctor asked me did i have a bad dream, do i drink coffee, did i take asprin.
he assumed it was the coffee and asprin (caffine).
but i have a friend that had problems with his heart (this happened to him and his wife months apart)
he went to the hospital and they told him his arteries is clog with plaque (veins of the heart is clogged with cholesterol) he had to get stents (they had to flush it out).
if you go to the doctors let us know what happens. if you have no insurance i would go to the emergency the next time it happens.
