Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.in my opinion based on my experience of dealing the similar patients in my clinic these small red marks could be exaggeration of stretch marks.you should try and notice such kind of marks at any other parts of the body .if they are present somewhere else then you should get your platelet count ,bleeding time .I would like to advice you to local doctor for better visual assessment. hope this answers you query well.
