I drank rum for the first time. I am 22 years old. I drank only 3-4 peg. I have cold symptoms since years and dust allergic. Anyways after drinking rum for the first time, the next morning I saw that my skin was starting to react. Little red bumps started to appear throughout my hands and toes and started itching. I am completely frightened. I am very afraid of cancers. Can just a first time drinking rum cause any big hazard?

Hi, this reaction can be due to allergic issue, having rum will definitely not lead you to any permanent damage. Feel free to contact if you still have questions.

Alcohol has many harmful effects. However one time binge drinking does not cause cancer in a day.
