Can Common Cold Cause Chills Along With Body Ache, Headache And Body Itching?

Hi. Yesterday my side/rib cage started hurting almost like sore muscle pain. I had a really hard time getting comfortable last night while sleeping. I kept tossing and turning trying to get comfortable and waking up from pain. Today I starting getting occasional chills and achiness. My skin started itching (best way to describe) or irritatingly sensitive. My clothes were annoying my and felt like I had a rash. However, there is no rash. I also starting to get a slight headache. I do not recall doing anything to cause the soreness in my rib area. Can these all be symptoms of a cold?

Hi,

Yes, they might be. However, you should do a chest X-Ray and your doctor should hear your lungs.
