Vertical Red coloured marks
I have vertical red marks on my biceps, shoulders, abdomen, right and left side of lower abdomen,around the belly button. This started appearing before 6-8 months and gradually they are increasing in area and size. Is it a sign of any disease or is it normal to have them ? How do I get rid of it?
