Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Localized or generalized crawling sensation is seen in people who are very anxious and stressed out. Very dry skin and disorders of thyroid gland all can precipitate a crawling sensation. The other possibility is Morgellons disease often mimics scabies. The disease is  believed to be caused by weak immune systems in people that have contracted the tick-borne Lyme Disease at some point in their life. It can also be a fungal infection like Tinea corporis. I think you should discuss these possibilities with your doctor. Hope this helps. Take care!
