Hand swelling is a sign of fluid buildup or inflammation of the tissues or joints of the hand. Hand swelling, which is also called edema, can also result from serious infections, trauma, and other abnormal processes.
Alcohol, in the form of beer, wine or hard liquor, may cause water retention in the hands and feet. The fluid tends to accumulate in the hands and feet because it travels downwards. If you experience swelling in your feet after drinking alcoholic beverages, consult with your health care provider immediately as it may be a symptom of liver damage. Initially, alcohol acts like a diuretic, which can cause dehydration. The salty snack that you might consume while drinking alcohol may also contribute to swelling in hands. Long-term alcohol drinking may cause severe and dangerous fluid retention in the abdomen, known as ascites.
