Just noticed this today, although I can't determine whether or not there stretch mark or not, the past few weeks I been gaining a lot weight and fast, just about 2 months into taking a high dosage of prednisone.. When I look in the mirror, relax my stomach muscles and turn to the side, I literaly look pregnant, (keep in mind im a male) but my skin looks really ashy and with tiny white marks all around my abdominal area leading to my sides and back as well.. Being only 150lbs at 6ft I'm extremely skinny but seems like I'm getting a lot of the weight only in the area, like where my bladder would be.. Does the ashy white marks on the skins resemble side effects of prednisone? Are these stretch marks? I never experienced a stretch mark before but this isnt what i thought itd look like, this looks almost like an ashy more alarming kind of look to me
