Veisalgia is a term for the discomfort and hangover symptoms that follow alcohol consumption, typically featuring headache, thirst, and fatigue. The word combines elements from Spanish 'veis' (to see) and Greek 'algia' (pain) in a coined medical sense, though it is used primarily in scholarly discussions of alcohol-related symptoms. It denotes the post-intake malaise rather than acute intoxication.
