I had a head cold for 3 days including sore throat yesterday was my worst day thought I was getting chest infection.. Had a good sleep last night and woke up feeling much better ( surprisingly) but I have extremely itchy hands and feet starting to spread up my lower legs it started on my soles and palms but seems to be spreading?

Hi, in my opinion you itching sensation is because of some allergic reaction.
IF i were your treating doctor I would suggest you to take anti histamines like cetrizine, chlorpheneramine malate, once or twice a day for 3 days to reduce itching.
Since your head cold is fine not to worry, if it persist take take paracetamol when required. Take care.
