Alcohol and collagen

Anyone think drinking regularly (like having a couple of drinks on weekend nights) can have a detrimental enough effect on tissue to cause hernia related issues? Google of course tells me alcohol use can deplete vitamins and such and weaken tissue. But not sure to what extent this should be a consideration for those of us with hernia issues. I’d give up droning forever if I though it’d make an appreciable difference.

Tobacco and alcohol, together with diabetes mellitus, cause a re-modeling in the cremaster muscle, leading to a loss of support or structural alteration in this region, being able to intensify the occurrences and damages related to the inguinal hernias.
