Drinking causes does in-fact cause sinus, chest, and nasal congestion because your body sees alcohol as an invader which in fact it is so your immune system will fight it off and congestion means your body is working to fight it out. Thank you

YES!!! This past year I have noticed that when I over drink alcohol I suffer from severe nasal congestion that lasts days......I hate it!! Unfortunately I think I suffer from an allergy or intolerance to alcohol. Thru further research I have decided that I will just have to quit drinking.

Why does alcohol cause sinus congestion?

Although this is not a complete answer to your question I will post it anyway. It has something to do with the histamines in some alcohols. My Ear/Nose/Throat doctor told me this. I will get alot of sudden onset sinus congestion after drinking alcohol. It took me a while to figure it all out. It isn't all liquors, just some. I hope this will help. It will at least point you in the right direction. Mary Barker

Yep it is very possible that the pressure behind your nose is due to sinus congestion.
