Weird marks
Sometimes when I wake up in the morning, I have these things under my arms which look like scratches or stretch marks. They are red and VERY noticeable. They are not stretch marks as they do disappear. I know they aren't scratches as they aren't raised and I know that I do not scratch them in the night. It's not from shaving as they are above and below that area. I am just curious to know what they are. They disappear after a few days then come back. I also have a few marks at the top of one of my legs, but they are very minor compared to the ones I get under my arms. The only medication I take it the Pill (Dianette). Do you know what it could be? thanks

I'm inclined to go with beth's response, I think they are caused by sleeping in a certain position, for the marks, and the scratches may be caused by food crumbs, or even a bit of grit, that has lodged against your skin, and chafes in the night. Mine have stopped, now, so I'm sure yours will too.
