Suggest Remedy For Bubbling Sensation In Chest After Consuming Alcohol
hello. For the past few days (after what I d say was an excessive amount of alcohol) I have been experiencing a feeling of bubbling on the left side of my body next to my heart. There is no pain, just an alarming process that randomly comes and goes. Just wondering if it is a dietary issue (gas from certain foods), due to the amount alcohol (obviously not good for the heart, or anything, rather) or due to something completely different. I am a 19 year-old male, weight is about 150 pounds, 6 ft tall.

cannot say in your particular case, but generally,alcohol increases GI activity and this includes increased reflux. This can feel like rumbling. Mainly decreasing/stopping alcohol but eating will change the feeling. might make it worse, but will mostly do something.
