10 days of having a itchy back. Is it possible that this is a symptom of alcohol liver disease? I do not have any other symptoms at all. Can pruritus be the first presenting symptom of liver disease?

Go to your doctors and get it checked. Pruritis related to liver disease is often a symptom of having too much bilirubin in your blood so it's a simple enough test. There can obviously be other reasons for skin itching and your doctor is best placed to assess these.
