What Causes Itching Rash All Over The Body After Recovering From Cold?

Hi,
For the past 20 days, I've had a red itchy evolving rash on parts of my body i.e. nape to neck, under one breast, temples and lower back. I've changed detergents, body creams and eliminated some vitamins I've been taking. In the past 6 days, I've tried anti-histamines and a hydra-cortisone cream. However, the rash is subsiding in some spots and growing in new spots.

I've recently had a bad cold and was wondering if there's any connection?

Thanks,
m
