Patient's question:
My uncle hates drinking beer and always gets completely drunk. This time, after getting drunk, he couldn't be woken up no matter how hard I tried. My aunt was upset, thinking it was alcohol poisoning, and asked me about the symptoms and manifestations of alcohol poisoning. I didn't know either. Hello, what are the symptoms and manifestations of alcohol poisoning?Doctor's answer:
Alcohol poisoning in mild cases: dizziness, headache, slurred speech after drinking, unsteady gait, severe nausea, runny nose, laughing hysterically, neurasthenia, and even respiratory anesthesia leading to death. These are all symptoms of drug abuse. People with alcohol and internet addiction are prone to chronic poisoning, while frequent drinkers are at risk of liver cirrhosis.Mild poisoning: red eyes, flushed or pale face, dizziness, headache, agitation, and increased talkativeness. Let them drink a lot of vinegar water (vinegar added to warm boiled water) or eat many fresh fruits (such as watermelon, radishes, etc.).
Moderate poisoning: clumsy movements, unsteady gait, incoherent speech, and mumbled words. They should drink more vinegar water or hot water, then stimulate the throat with fingers to vomit food into the stomach, increasing the metabolism of alcohol in the body.
