Can excessive alcohol give you A Rash?

Answer:
Yes! I find that after abusing alcohol in the past, now everytime I try to drink any hard alcohol I will wake up with a blotchy red rash up and down my face, neck, and sometimes my hands. I really believe a its alcohol related rash. now i just stick to wine.. what I want to know is whats going on in my body that is not allowing it to break down the alcohol like it's suppose to.

There is a related condition called Asian flush. Even if you are not Asian, it can still happen. They call it Asian Flush because many Asians cannot metabolize alcohol properly. See the Related Links for more
