You may be describing striae, otherwise known as “stretch marks”. These happen when the part of the body is growing relatively quickly and the skin is forced to stretch quickly. To be certain that’s what you are seeing, a doctor can examine you. If that is what is there, it is not harmful and they often fade over time. Good luck to you!
