Morphology
The phrase 'common symptom' is a straightforward adjective+noun composition: 'common' (frequently occurring) modifies 'symptom' (a sign of illness), so the meaning—a symptom that occurs often—is directly derivable from the constituents. This is a regular compositional pattern found across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both words would readily understand it.
Etymology
Common symptom comes from two simple words: common meaning 'happens often' and symptom meaning 'a sign of illness'. Picture the same cough or headache showing up in many people, and that is why the phrase means a sign that shows up in lots of patients.
