Hello,
The chest pain after taking alcohol and pills is most likely due to acid reflux. Elevation of the upper body at night is recommended as this decreases reflux of acid from the stomach. Diet modification is essential - avoid the substances that increase your symptoms. You could take some over the counter antacids - approximately one hour after meals or just before the symptoms of reflux begin after a meal. You need to talk to your doctor about proton pump inhibitors and other prescription medications for GERD.

Hello Kaur,
Thank you for your response. I have also been having weird aches in the heart since the event. It's starting to feel better or maybe I am just desensitized to it. Not sure..
Do you think the mixture of pills and alcohol may have permanently made damage to my vascular health? I've been doing some research and its seems that the pills and the alcohol are both vasodilators and can lower blood pressure significantly when taken together.
Hello,
These can be penile varicose veins or due to Mondor’s disease. This is an inflammatory reaction to a clot within the vein. This subsequently causes blockages and dilation of the vein. It is typically painless, but can be painful. In studies, patients were noted to have thrombophlebitis after a prolonged sexual act with or without intercourse. It was described as cord-like thickening of the superficial penile veins.
Diagnosis can be confirmed by ultrasound.
