Bloated Faces

well maybe in that case you should confront her about it.... its tough though to talk to someone about drinking too much....i drank too much when i was in college and many many people tried to get me to slow it down a bit, the only thing that made me stop drinking so much, was me.

Good news is if she stops she will heal and look here age again... I gained 10 15 years back when I stopped... the red cheeks and nose heals to...

Bloating definitely can happen as a result of alcohol. It affects liver, kidney and even heart function, all of which help control fluid balance in the body. And bloating probably happens at different rates in different people. I think a lot of it has to do with how it affects liver function, but I don't know the specific patho-physiology that explains exactly why. I had an alcoholic uncle who was definitely bloated and an alcoholic great aunt who was the same way.

Every list of alcohol-related symptoms always lists bloating as one of the signs. Like on this one, which isn't just about binge-drinking, despite the URL wording:
in the know zone - binge drinking

That's a path you DO NOT wanna go down... Alcohol will destory your life.

since i've been smoking weed i have had the urge to drink less and less. ill have a few beers now and then but thats it. alcohol in large quantities is not really worth it to me. it tastes unpleasant, dehydrates you, and makes you feel like shit the next day.

Yes, I have noticed that a lot of heavy drinkers get bloated faces.

It comes with many, many years of abusinf alcohol. You won't get bloated faces with weekend partying. More with years of daily, heavy drinking.

Bloated faces are sometimes common within alcoholics, not all of them, but my best friends mom was a drinker for 25 years and her face was puffy. Sadly, she passed on the gene to him and now his face is bloated.

I wouldn't worry about it too much if you're a social drinker. Keep in mind that most alcoholics blood alcohol level is usually at .75, that's 7 times the legal limit I believe, so unless you're drinking that much, don't worry about it.

it takes years of heavy drinking for that to happen. otherwise i'd look like the stay puffed marshmallow man. i dont think your sisters bloated face is from drinking.

lol the end of that post is helarious.


IDK, but it takes much time for a face blotation from daily alch.
