What causes tinnitus,neck pain and sweaty hands after drinking alcohol?
Answered by
Brief Answer:
Could be a minor disease of cranial nerves.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
I have noted your symptoms. The most likely cause of your symptoms could be mild damage of cranial nerves- vestibulo-cochlear and trigeminal nerves.
This could be related to alcohol or due to an unrelated cause such as a viral infection.
You should get better in 4-6 weeks.
Please continue with current vitamin supplements.
If you do not get better, an MRI scan of brain may be done.
I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.
Wishing you good health,
