Spot w/ persistent pain & puffiness & newly developed stretch marks. But the skin is not tight in that spot, in fact its the only spot where skin can be grabbed and lifted up. Being out of my compression garment causes a lot of discomfort. Putting my hand on my back to hold up the skin is the only thing that relieves it until I'm back in the garment. Any idea why there are there stretch marks, why is the skin loose or what is causing the pain? Seeing my MD next week to discuss but was curious
