I started going to the gym back in November 2015, and now it's been about 56 months. I've noticed some stretch marks appearing near my armpit area. I've talked to my nutritionist and gym trainer about it, and even did some Googling. It seems like these marks might be popping up because my body is growing or adding more muscle. Does that sound right, or could there be another reason behind them? Should I see a dermatologist about this, or would a sports nutritionist be better to consult with? Any advice would be appreciated!

I'm noticing a white line around my upper lip and I'm not sure why this is happening. Do you have any idea what might be causing it or if there's a way to treat it? Would love some guidance on this.

The white line around your upper lip could be a condition called angular cheilitis, which is often caused by fungal or bacterial infection, nutritional deficiencies, or excessive saliva accumulation at the corners of the mouth. To treat this, you can use an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole twice daily for 1-2 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area dry and applying a barrier cream like Vaseline can help. If the condition persists, it's best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
