Nagging doubt is a feeling that something is wrong that just doesn't go away and keeps coming back to you.
A common cold is just what we call a normal coughy sneezy illness where you get a sore throat and runny nose
To raise your voice is to shout.
Sophisticated language is just speaking in complicated 'posh' language.
To scan a text is to look over it without paying it much attention.

@JustaStudent it's just a frequently used expression to describe the illness I mentioned above. It is used to show the fact that it is not a serious disease.
