weird topic i know...but ive had a strange dull feeling in my right side around the liver and a bit of a flutter at times..Im a drinker but not a raging alkie either...i like my booze...during the week and average of 3-4 beers a day and the occasional whiskey rocks 2-5 over the week..weekend is a bit more intake at times..i know everyone is different with different genes and im on the fence about goin to the doc cause its not consistent and not so much pain as it is a mild discomfort..seems almost muscular..my girl thinks its could be gall bladder issues and thinks maybe i should slow up on the booze...any shared stories on this as i know a small lot of ya are good drinkers and like the good stuff as do i...any info appreciated..thx

Dude, 3-4 beers a day is a little too much.

Sounds like the liver.
I've had quite a few instances where I've drank too much in a certain time period and as a result experienced a dull pain on my right side. Probably just a bit of inflammation.
- do u continue to drink? was it somethin u went to the doc for?..ive had bad hangovers but never felt the dull pain before..

Yep. Could be gallbladder. Could have gallstones, or an inflammed liver, or it could be displaced pain from other organs. Get some bloodwork done, they can test for liver function and so on.

take a break, replace the beer with water for a week and see what happens.
I got hepatitis from drinking too much last year when the olympics were in town and my liver was so inflamed that I had difficulty walking for about 3 days. Water helped and it subsided.
- Damn. I cant def still work, was doing alot round the house yester but the dullness came and went throughout the day..thx Publics.

Go to the doctor if you a concerned. QBN isnt the place for this.

You probably have a gallbladder problems, especially if you drink a lot, or have an irregular diet.
I had mine taken out this year after years of dealing with the uncomfortable pain off and on. It was completely worth it.

If its a dull ache on the sides of you back, it could be kidney stones. If it is, get it looked at by a doctor. I made a thread a while back on kidney stones - wouldn't wish them on anyone.
Best bet is to cut out the booze, and drink more water :-)
- Have also had kidney stones. Worst pain imaginable.domacle

Stop drinking. 4 drinks a day (depending on alcohol content) is considered a binge, and you are doing that every day. I think you only have yourself to blame.
- lol "a binge" please. Bing is strictly double digits.ThePublics
- Not according to the feeble UK view on this.Raniator
- isnt the recommended amount 3-4 a day for men??jruggs

3-4 beers a day and the occasional whiskey rocks 2-5 over the week. I'd call that an Alcoholic. Sorry.

Could be the gall. Get some blood tests. Mention to the doc that you think it might be gall stones/bladder as they tend not to diagnose it. My gf's mum had gall stone pain for decades before they worked out what it was. Now the gf's having the op and only because she told the doc her mother had the issue.

I heard from several sources that you can't "feel" your liver. Usually when there is pain in that region its the galbladder or the colon.

This is silly. It could be anything, could be gas. Gas can cause pain in various places from right in your heart area down to your ass and everywhere in between.
Go get a blood test if you're worried about, but one thing is for sure, if there is something seriously wrong you will have symptoms far worse and a pain here and there.

ask a doctor - he'll probably tell you it's probably nothing
ask qbn - they'll tell you you're a flatulent alcoholic in need of several operations
