  • Weird stretchmarks

    I got these "spotted" looking stretch marks on my left bicep. they started showing up about a month ago. The thing is my biceps arent very big at all and the skin isnt very tight around my bicep, so I don't understand why I'm getting stretchmarks. Is there anyway to get them to go away? Or how could I keep them from getting bigger?

    Pictures below.





    Please help, I dont want ugly stretch-marks

    Um yeah, that looks more like a rash to be honest. My wife has stretch marks and those aren't what they look like.

      well to me they look and feel more like stretch marks. there is no itch or irritation whatsoever, so i dont think its a rash. I guess ill just go see my doctor once I can afford to.

          Those do look like the beginning of stretch marks (esp. the first pic). Try some topical vitamin E or stretchmark cream to prevent them. I have em all over my pec-delt tie in region, and some on my biceps forming too. It's the biproduct of getting hiyuge.

              I been popping open Vitamin E softgels and smearin it all over my bicep. It doesnt seem to be helping much, does it just take time for the Vit-E to heal it?

              I've also heard to use coco butter or somesort of stretchmark cream that preggo chicks use. Whats the best thing to use???

              stretch marks is so ugly

                yea those are stretchmarks although i think people are used to seeing much longer marks and not just spots. just give it some time and theyll heal. i stopped working out biceps for a week and they mostly went away. mine ranged from 1 cm to 6 cm long and were all over the inner side of the bicep and all pretty much disappeared.

                    I have those all over both arms, scattered around amongst the deeper lined ones... I seriously have em almost all the way to the nipple from the elbow... They're a bitch to get rid of man, Vit e hasnt done jack for me, neither has the high dollar stretch mark cream. Cocoa butter is used because it has vitamin E in it.

                      1 - time heals all things

                      2 - shave your arm pits

                      3 - if you don't wanna shave em, at least trim them. it'll go along ways with the ladies. if you don't want to go long ways with ladies, keep growin buddy

                              they'll go away ovr time.. i get them when i start a bulk or cut usually... mainly up around the armpit area as well..

                              i mean, the armpit area isnt meant to be attractive...

                              but for an awesome lil trick with your lady, slowly rub/caress the back of her knee (the knee pit) it's crazy.
