Patients who heavily consume alcohol may have trouble with wound healing even if the care provided to them is within the standard of care. Excessive alcohol consumption is detrimental to wound healing because it significantly interferes with both the inflammatory phase and proliferation phase of the process. After further investigation, the research group discovered three specific factors that slowed the healing process, each one brought on by the use of alcohol.

It has now been proven that repeated exposure to alcohol, particularly at binge levels, reduces the levels of certain components of the immune system essential to healing. Whether wounds come from car accidents, trip and fall accidents, stabbings, or shootings, binge drinking leaves people vulnerable to a laundry list of potential dangers.
