Randomly get these above my armpits, I’ll have a normal day without any activity then wake up with marks. What is it? (photos)

I started noticing them when I would workout and normally would follow the day after I’ve done pushups, but now they appear randomly when I haven’t done anything physical. I’m not really concerned about it, there’s no pain at all, just curious as to why it’s happening
