I have small, dry, itchy patches on all parts of my body, what could this possibly be?

Could be eczema, and autoimmune skin disease that can be very responsive to steroid creams and gentle cleansers. I'd recommend getting checked by a dermatologist, but as a starting point you can try to use a non-saop cleanser like Cetaphil, keep showers short and not too hot and pat skin dry and then moisturize (Cetaphil lotion is great) and then try some 1% hydrocortisone cream on the isolated rough areas - but again, not without first checking with a dermatologist who can rule out other skin issues.
