I don't know the reason why and I can't give you a proper answer. All I know is that alcohol always makes my osteoarthritis worse and I too have borderline osteoprosis and an old back fracture. I rarely have a drink these days because of this. I don't think it would necessarily exascerbate the condition, but it certainly makes my joints hurt a lot more if I drink.
