Q: Stretch Marks On 16 Year Old Male **please Read**

i am 16 years old and I have always been considered to be quite bodily matured for my age.
I am around 6 foot and I am within the healthy range of the bmi.
I have stretch marks on the back, running horizontally across my spine, on the inside of my thighs, on my buttocks and on the back of my arms - all of these stretch marks are either purple or red.
Is it normal for me to have all of these stretch marks? It's a little embarrassing and I cannot take my shirt of in public anymore.
By the way, my blood pressure which I just tested with a electric self test kit is 134/72 or my second attempt was 128/72
thanks

what does your blood pressure have to do with the fact that your skin is stretching at a rather quick rate which in return is causing the stretch marks. They will eventually turn silver and not as noticeable.
