Hello Rohit008, have you been diagnosed with a myeloproliferative neoplasm - MPN, either essential trombocythaemia (ET), polycythaemia vera (PV) or myelofibrosis (MF)?

I think you may be posting this question in the wrong forum. Maz

I don't understand you ma'am.

This is a forum for those with blood cancer. Nevertheless, it looks like you may have been lifting weights and gaining muscle mass pretty quick for that to happen. Same as my cousin.

I think that you are posting in the wrong forum, this forum is for people who have one of the myeloproliferative neoplasms I have listed above, these are rare blood cancers, and it seems that perhaps you don't have one of these.

If you are concerned about these marks on your arms you should see your doctor for advice.

Kind regards, Maz
