I drink socially on quite a few evenings a week (white wine). However, these last ten days or so, colleagues etc have been meeting up and bringing a bottle of wine for me or insisting on buying each other drinks so my consumption has risen considerably. Today I have a stabbing pain in my liver area and round to my back. How long will it take to calm down with total abstinence?

    Your liver doesn't have any nerve endings so you don't normally feel pain if you have alcohol induced liver damage,unless it is fatty liver,which should clear up within a few weeks with total abstinence and cutting out sugars and starches. I used to have a stabbing pain in that area and it turned out to be something not associated with the liver and not serious.
