Alcoholism to comatose

Today, I will be taking on some sci related issues. Often times I think excessive drinking may just make you lie down and sleep if you've not been having enough rest but Hell No, it may bring some health issues.

• _Alcoholism

Alcoholism can simply be defined as a chronic addiction to alcohol of various types leafing to fading or deteriorating health conditions and social functions.

We can also term it as acute alcohol poisoning.

In the society we find ourselves today, many a times, we see large number of people in gatherings/occasions & merriments. The general belief is that if there's no drink/alcohol in a party, the party is not for human. That means alcohol is an integral part of any social function.

I wouldn't say taking alcohol is bad or is an health risk cause a times, medical practitioners will advise patients to take a prescribed level of hot drink (alcohol) or a times a leveled dosage of palm wine. Everything has its own precautionary level be it good or bad. Excessive intake of alcohol leads to weakened functions of the brain cells. That's why you see drunkards walking in a zigzagging way. They often take in toxic substances which affects the metabolic system that reduce level of oxygen due to the level of intoxication. This will bring us close to discussing Coma/comatose.

A coma is a deep state of unconsciousness. It can happen as a result of a traumatic accident, such as a blow to the head, or a medical condition, for example, some types of infection _source

A drunkard will normally be imbalance and loose control on changing his/her state of rest I.e there's an alter in his state therefore there's mobility of the object or the individual in question. During this imbalance movement, he/she may hit the head on the wall or floor or anything that may cause damage to the brain cells. The person may be drunk and still be riding in the car & from the above definition of coma, it reveals that a blow to the head in cases of accidents which may be traumatic will likely lead the patient to a vegetative state which may also be called COMA.

_{Traumatic brain injuries, often caused by traffic collisions or acts of violence, are common causes of comas. Stroke. Reduced or interrupted blood supply to the brain (stroke), which may be caused by blocked arteries or a burst blood vessel, can result in a coma} source

With this knowledge, I would advise many of us that has replaced water with alcoholic drinks to note the traumatic effects this unhealthy habit may cause them.

Prevention is wiser to finding the cure
