Awesome post! This was very helpful and it answered a lot of my questions. Have you found out the answers to your last questions? I'm curious about how to empty my cup too .

I have that issue as well... But I truly believe it's because I had my gall bladder removed....Now like many others I'm trying to figure out the pain the next day... Cause alcohol gives me relief in that moment

Well I'm not a doctor or pretend to be one. I'm 62 and love to down hill ski and pretty good at it. At this moment I'm in, Crested Butte col with a ski club. We are an alcohol club with a sking problem. The apres ski part , while fun is a killer on my muscles and joints and when your sking at 11,000 feet it's worse with dehydration and the the affects of elevation. Now add to the equation that I own a liquor store, I have to taste a lot of spirits to see what I will sell. I guess what it boils down to is plane common sense. If the alcohol is the the cause , then cut down or completely abstain. Do you want to feel better or suffer the effects of pain. The choice is yours and mine. Good luck. Boomer

Now this explains my knee pains when I drank a lot of orange juice and cranberry juice this past week. Thank you for the tip. Will be drinking lots more water.

Yeah, I've got that sedentary corporate job, and a love for dat Vodka Cranapple. That pretty much sums up why I'm over weight. Lately I've been noticing my muscles are weakening, joints are starting to hurt. I guess I'm gonna have to quit drinking, there really is no in between. Problem is, my life is pretty damn boring without the altered state, so... I guess we'll see...

Thanks for having all these posts here. I was trying to figure out why my knees have been hurting so much. Im 34 and way over weight. Just started drinking beer about 6 months ago. Never had knee problems before. Google searched & found this. Now I know what's wrong with my knees (hopefully) & that Im not crazy....maybe. Thanks!

I'm a 64 yr old RN. Have family history of RA, tested negative 3 years ago. My left knee was scraped, spurs removed and generally "fixed" 3 yrs ago, even though I have to baby it. Right knee perfectly fine until I finally discovered a delicious red wine I started drinking 2-3 times per week. I do not normally even like wine. I'll drink gluten free hard apple cider or a good margarita occasionally. Suddenly BOTH my knees have gotten so bad I can't get up and down stairs. It just occurred to me the ONLY thing different is that I've been drinking the red wine!! I googled to see of any other folks reporting this issue and have been bombarded with the effects on joints. I poured half a bottle of the red devil down the drain and am cleansing myself of it to see if knees improve. I'm going back to Tequila and hard cider!!!

OMG, just came across this thread!!! I too have severe joint pain everywhere that started about 6 months ago. Just this week I started thinking that beer may be the issue. I am a Rye and ginger drinker but I started drinking beer about 6 months ago. I'd have the occasional one but with a hot tub, I drink a few most nights in the tub with wine as well. Three days ago I stopped the beer just to see if it helps. I am now thinking beer is out of my diet. Feel so much better already!!! I see a Dr in June and am going to see if there is a test for this issue.

I had the same problem, I switched to non-wheat spirit cocktails and I have no joint pains I the mornings anymore :)

I have had a stiff and sore knee for 3 weeks now, Im 49 and drink one or 2 glasses of red wine a night. I have had no alcohol for 3 days and the knee is 50% better already

You're thinking of cartilage, not ligaments. Ligaments connect one bone in a joint to another, such as the anterior cruciate ligament in a knee. Cartilage pads the joint, like the meniscus in the knee.
