Alright so I've been drinking for about 3 years.. once every weekend usually, not really that often though. Some times I'll go a month without drinking. But the weekend before last, and last weekend, I had about 8 units of alcohol (I think) during each drinking session. The next day, (I'm assuming) my liver is sore. It doesn't really hurt at all, it's just kind of uncomfortable. This weekend it has actually lasted over 24 hours, I drank Saturday night and it is still kind of sore. It is also a bit sore on the right side of my pelvis like between my belly button and the top of my right leg. This has never happened when I've had only 2 or 3 beers, but I can get pretty tipsy off 2 or 3 beers so maybe I just have a low tolerance. This has never happened to any of my friends. Should I be worried? I discovered that I rarely drink water when drinking alcohol. Maybe this is part of it. I have no family history of any sort of liver disease, and this has only happened the past two weekends, I've definitely gotten as drunk as that before and this didn't happen. Anyone know if this is a bad sign and should I see a doctor?
