Should alcohol be removed from the body by actively causing vomiting?

Many people, when they drink a lot of alcohol, often dig out their throats to expel the alcohol from their bodies. This action is potentially dangerous.

In fact, medicine has methods to induce vomiting, but it is not used to treat alcohol consumption, but is often used to save patients from poisoning or taking the wrong medicine. The principle of this method is to use the index finger to insert into the oral cavity, stimulating deep in the throat, which will make us feel nauseous, thereby causing vomiting, but throat piercing requires a professional to guide the implementation. .

If you arbitrarily hook your throat incorrectly, sharp fingers or long nails combined with too strong downward pressure will damage this part, even causing pain. In addition, during vomiting, the trachea can easily be choked with food or gastric juice, causing suffocation.

Not to mention vomiting for a long time will cause many harmful effects, including damage to the esophagus, leading to esophagitis, ulcers or esophageal bleeding; disorders and damage to the digestive system.

To limit drunkenness, it is best to drink no or little alcohol. Some stomach coatings (not hangovers) can help limit hangovers. The mechanism of these drugs is like a protective layer on the stomach, preventing direct attack of acid on the stomach wall and slowing the absorption of alcohol into the blood.

Another way to reduce hangovers after drinking alcohol is to replace electrolytes by drinking oresol mixed as directed. Adding plenty of water after drinking alcohol is also a way to increase excretion and reduce the feeling of being drunk. When the body replenishes water and urinates more, the alcohol concentration will decrease faster, thereby reducing drunkenness. However, you need to drink water properly, add slowly and most importantly, listen to your body.
