Itchy rash

Question

Itchy rash

Asked for Female, 15 Years

I have had an itchy rash for nearly 2-3 week. Me, my boyfriend, and only one of his roommates have it. my doctor said it was contact dermatitis but I’ve used all the cream and it’s only gotten worse. Some of the rash looks like staff, some look like ringworm (but it is definitely neither of those, that’s just for visualization). I’m starting to think it might be scabies. It itches worse at night and does appear on my hands, but my question is: do I have to have trails?
