Bathing isn't going to make the dryness worse. What soap you use is what makes your skin dry.Bathing everyday keeps down the bacteria that naturally grows on the skin. When someone has body odor, what you are really smelling is an excess of bacteria. By bathing you wash away all that excess bacteria. Although the bacteria is naturally occurring, and necessary to our health, it can also lead to infections if not kept at a minimum. Bathe everyday, but use a mild soap that is formulated for sensitive skin and use a GOOD moisturizing lotion after your bath. Don't use perfumed lotions and soaps, but go for products that are of better quality and made for skin health and not just for the smell.
