How To Treat Whiskey Mediated Red Patches On Hips?

Hello doctor, I have a concern about about red long patches that appear on the two sides of my hips. They are not extremely itchy but yes some times I feel like scratching a bit. Also I have observed that these patches occur only when I have had alcohol, specifically whiskey. It's happened thrice. I was wondering if this might be a serious condition or just an allergy to whiskey. Also only this time I'm feeling dizzy. Though I tthink it might be due to lack of sleep after drinking. I've slept for 3 hours only today. I would really like to know the opinion &precautions to be taken or advice you may have about future alcohol consumption in parties. Thank you.
