Common cold, i.e. upper respiratory viral infection, rarely causes generalized itching. So you itching could be due to allergy, drug reaction or dry skin with cold weather and low humidity indoor due to heat use. So the itching should be handled separately, other cold symptoms should be self limited but cough at times may persist for weeks.
