Ice: I have a similar problem, very dry itchy skin especially on the legs. There are things you can do. No hot showers and when you do shower be quick No drying soaps like ones with perfumes or deodorants If available when the itch is intense an ice cube run along the leg gives you the satisfaction feeling after the itching so you do not want to scratch it and you have not traumatized the skin

Need evaluation: It is hard to know what is causing the itching but most itching respond to specific treatment to the course like scabies or other infestations, dry skin and other skin conditions. Use of topical steroids or antihistamines or oral antihistamines will help reduce symptoms
