The primary causes of stomach pain after drinking alcohol include cholecystitis, gastric ulcers, angina pectoris, or peptic ulcers. For safety, patients should minimize alcohol consumption in daily life and consume more fresh vegetables and fruits to support healthy metabolic function. Additionally, they should drink plenty of warm water to maintain adequate hydration and further regulate metabolism.
