Cold: Doubtful. Probably just getting a cold at the same time. No correlation. Good luck. Stay hydrated

No: Erupting wisdom teeth can cause local pain and swelling. Not related to cold or flu.

Unrelated: 21 is late for wisdom tooth eruption in females. Would be advisable to have them evaluated by an Oral Surgeon. Colds are caused by viruses, not by tooth eruption.
