My husband and i both have a rash all over. it's extremely itchy and keeps us up at at night. his doctor told him its dry skin. what could it be?

Consider scabies: If both of you are itching, you should see your doctor who might do a skin scraping to see if you or your husband have scabies. Scabies is a mite that grows in the skin, and can be treated with prescription topical or oral medication.
