Cellophane You for contacting Chat Doctor. From the symptoms I think you're most probably suffering from scabies. It is a skin disorder in which there is itching spread in whole family. Is itching sever at night and between fingers? I would recommend you to visit a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis so that treatment can be started immediately. Although it is not life-threatening but may spread to people around you. Once again this disease would be confirmed by examination. I have concluded from the description you gave. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. Wishing you all good health.
