Weird stretch mark looking things...

[StrongIron84]

they just appeared today on the tops of each of my shoulders and one shoulder it is huge looks almost like scratches(but not) and the other shoulder you can't see as much but you can still notice them...

i just noticed it tonight as i was rubbing the lotion on its skin.... any idea

EDIT: These have appeared before(about 2 months ago) but they were less obvious but they always appear on both shoulders

its nothing dont worry about it had the same problem you get them when you are doing shoulder press especially the standing calf raises. In my case i just stopped that machine and they faided away just try to replace it with something else that does the same workout

almost 3 weeks to a month more weights i was lifting more red and obvious they were became. I dont have any pics of them as they are gone now and i stopped doing that machine after a month. I dont remember the cream i used though

likely just the bar leaving marks...will happen if you take a long hiatus from doing exercises with the bb on the traps/shoulders...either use a pad or don't fret it

here is the pic its not that good quality... thing is havent done squats with the bar in awhile because i had to get like a minor surgery sorta thing on the back of my neck a month ago, so yesturday i only did Press and SLDL and extensions etc

Also OHP i havent really done, i did a OHP on an incline but very light weight because i have a shoulder injury im in PT for right now

EDIT: when i say i havent done them in awhile i mean i didn't do them yesterday either

Hey man I get them bout once a week usually from my gurl diggin her nails in while I'm goin to town. Lol... Looks to me like its from the bar resting there or rubbing it. Ull be fine.

They are broken blood vessels as someone else already mentioned. You get them from having large amounts of weight resting on the area. The only exercise I do that causes them is the calf press where the pads are over your shoulders. Those should disappear within a week.
