Reddish blue streaks on skin
Reddish-blue streaks is a symptom in which a person has some reddish-blue "lines" on some parts of his skin, and may be due to hormonal problems such as high cortisol (a cortisone-type steroid). Streaks that look more like stretch marks, with some purplish color, are also a feature of high cortisol problems.
