Alcohol intolerance?

I have always suffered from aching joints whenever I have consumed alcohol (15yo when I had my first small glass of wine). This is from the first few sips. The pain can last for hours after consumption.

I've had a look at common symptoms of alcohol intolerance, I do suffer from flushed cheeks and dizziness, well before I can be inebriated. But the flushed cheeks isn't every time.

Is this alcohol intolerance? The aching joints is the main bother for me. Google doesn't offer any answers.

Thank you

Not heard of aching joints from alcohol before.
At first I thought it may relate to sulphites that exist in many alcoholic drinks, but that's usually more related to asthma like symptoms.
The only thing I could find that would be close would be "pain" after drinking alcohol...

I'd suggest you go to your doctor and ask for some tests to be done for things relating to alcohol intolerance/allergy.
